Leaves Showing Mixed Inheritance 



This is a. crossbred seedling, descended from purple- 

 leaved twd green-leaved ancestors. The segregation of colors in 

 the second generation has been referred to, and is illustrated here in 

 a. very interesting way. Most specimens have leaves that 

 are all green or all purple; but here and there one 

 mixes the colors, in a way that has peculiar 

 interest for the student of heredity.
