(Plant Patent 
No. 768) 
Staley 
Blooming time is midseason, shortly after the really early varieties. The 
plant is healthy and has remarkable vigor. As a matter of record we will 
add that it is a seedling of Mme. F. Morel and shows some indications of 
being a hybrid, but we are uncertain on that point. (So far as we know, and 
our large collection gives ample opportunity to judge, this is the only genu- 
inely pink Lilac introduced to date.) Only a limited number of plants are 
available.
