Philadelphus Lemoinei. Hybrid of P. coronarius and P. microphyllus. Shrub with spreading branches, freely flowering: twigs and little branchlets with short hairs: ordinary mature lvs. ovate to ovate-lanceolate, rather uniform, rather small, glabrous or nearly so, acute to acuminate, with a few minute teeth, those of the young succulent shoots and suckers entire or remotely few- toothed, somewhat larger: fls. 2-9, in dense racemes, having a delicate but charming perfume. G.F. 2:617. G.L. 28:225. — The following horticultural varieties are of interest : Var. erectus. Flowering branches irregularly ascending, forming a more compact bush and less desirable. M.D.G. 1902:383. Avalanche. Graceful shrub, taller than other varieties, branches sometimes as long as 6 ft. : easily distinguished from the other varieties by its lanceolate lvs. G.C. III. 21:89. M.D.G. 1896:293: 19076/21/2009 12:48PM:379. Bouquet Blanc. Lower lf. -surfaces and twigs with scattered hairs, distinctly visible: fls. in bouquet-like masses, not very fragrant. G.M. 55:487. G.W. 17, p. 101. Candelabre. Very low shrub, approaching P. microphyllus in size, hairy as in the preceding, but with a more open candelabra-like infl. M.D.G. 1896:294. Mont Blanc. Normally, probably, the most profusely flowering variety, but very variable in this respect. Hairs scarcely visible, a character at once distinguishing it from all the preceding. Exceedingly fragrant. Manteau d'Hermine. Twigs nearly or quite glabrous. Pavilion Blanc. Profusely flowering shrub: branches rounded or squarish in habit, twigs hairy : lvs. closely covered with silky hairs beneath. One of the most beautiful, and the sweetest scented of all the varieties, the perfume resembling that of P. microphyllus. Gerbe de Neige. Calyx hairy. Boule d'Argent Fls. double, stamens mostly sterile, about 1 1/4 in- across, not very sweet-scented; calyx glabrous. Oldest and least desirable of double-fld. sorts. G.C. III. 18:18; 23:331. Virginal. Large double fragrant fls., 2 1/2 in. across, or wider. G.M: 54:459. R.H. 1910, pp. 408, 409. Mer de Glace. Double fls., similar to preceding. G.W. 17, p. 102. Var. fimbriatus is a distinct variety with large fls., petals twisted and deeply serrate. For other varieties of this hybrid consult list, p. 2582. CH
