Broken Links Aren't Cool

I had just read an article about lilac bushes and was curious as to how expensive they were, so I did a Google search. I looked at several different websites (and was a little shocked at how costly the plants were) so I went to a gardening site that specialized in lilacs but when I clicked on the "shop" link, the above image was what I got. It was a nice site otherwise, but if they don't post a correct link to what they offer, then I'm not sure how long they'll stay in business.

goodness if that pricey, will send You to North Dakota. Mother and both My G'ma's loved them. Mother had purple, white and pink. Where the grave yard is in Ellendale, they had to stop planting then for awhile, so many wanted them.
Prices depended upon the variety and age/size of the plant, but I saw one plant f/ nearly $60. It would cost a bunch of money to plant a street-side hedge like one of my neighbors on the corner down from me used to have. After her husband passed away, I'd go check on her and sometimes drink a cup of coffee in the kitchen w/ her. They didn't have a/c and once went a yr. w/out any electricity, another neighbor told me. Of course, she had the windows open but that didn't help much. The lilacs were right outside the kitchen window and the smell was nice...for a while, then the heat and the fragrance got to be overwhelming.
I was so glad some of their children finally came and got her b/c it wasn't healthy for her to stay in that hot,hot house. The bushes didn't go all the way to the corner, but the city decided they blocked the view of the street so they cut 'em down.
I also read a bunch about lavender; that was what got me to thinking about lilacs and reading up on them, along w/ other fragrant plants. I do that a lot, want to learn about something, then do it, but get sidetracked reading about related things!
Purple Lilac is the NH state flower. The common Lilac (sp.vulgaris) grow like weeds around here. Almost every older house has some; you see them along the road sides, in the woods near old cellar holes. I'll have to take a picture of my neighbors house. He has a clump about 20 feet square.
