Originated here 
(The following list includes some of our 
best seedlings but not yet sufficiently tested 
to justify naming. H.C.C. means the new 
Horticultural Color Chart.) 
C-119. WABC. Single and the deepest blue 
we have ever seen. (H.C.C. Veronica 
Violet). 
C-127. BCD. Single; beautiful large “or- 
chid colored” flowers in rather small clus- 
ters; early. (H.C.C. Light Amethyst Violet 
35-3). 
C-138. ABCD. Single; mauve pink. On the 
order of Mme. F. Morel but blooms just 
as that finishes. Very vigorous and preco- 
cious bearing freely even on 1 year buds. 
We have cut clusters over a foot long and 
7 inches wide at base. 
C-139. BCD. Single; blue-purple. Among 
the heaviest bloomers we have ever seen here. 
C-143. BC. Single; ruddy mauve or “or- 
chid”, unusual color. Flowers very large 
in a spike of good size. (H.C.C. Petunia 
Purple 32-2). 
E-403. ABCD. Single. Buds very dark pur- 
ple opening violet-purple. Clusters are very 
large both in length and breadth and are 
borne well above the foliage. Vigorous; 
very heavy bloomer; late. 
E-909. ABCD. Single. Buds dark purple 
opening genuine violet, a color which is 
almost non-existent at present in Lilacs. 
Flowers are of medium size in long slim 
spikes.
