Sargent s Lilac 
The history of the parentage of this remarkable Lilac is not definitely known. 
It is a seedling of a plant (No. 15660 Arn. Arb.; no. 40 Komarov) often 
noted by the late Charles Sargent for its beauty. This hardy and vigorous 
shrub, raised by us and named for Mr. Sargent, bears enormous panicles of 
showy reddish violet flowers. It blooms about two weeks after the Common 
Lilac. $3.00 each.
