Abstract

A new and distinct selection of Syringa vulgaris L. (popularly known as Common Lilac) which shall be referred to hereinafter as Syringa vulgaris cultivar Monore. Syringa vulgaris cultivar Monore differs distinctively from other lilacs by a unique combination of profuse blooming at an early age, flowering well in hot areas with little winter chilling required, or flowering well in the colder typical lilac growing areas and the two toned coloring of the purple buds that open to deep purple blue flowers.

Description

DISCOVERY
This invention relates to a new and distinct selection of Syringa vulgaris, a member of the Oleaceae or olive family. Syringa vulgaris cv. Monore was selected by me from a group of seedlings at Sequoia Nursery, 2519 E. Noble Avenue, Visalia, Calif., in 1965. This plant is a seedling of Syringa vulgaris cv. Esther Staley which was growing in a group which included Syringa vulgaris cv. Mr. Lincoln and Syringa vulgaris cv. Ludwig Spaeth. Thus the parentage of my new plant is Syringa vulgaris cv. Esther Staley crossed with unknown. The plant to date is known only to exist within the boundaries of Sequoia Nursery and Monrovia Nursery Company, 18331 East Foothill Boulevard, Azusa, Calif.
REPRODUCTION
My new selection has been strictly asexually reproduced by cuttings at Monrovia Nursery Company. The distinct phenotypic characteristics of this new selection that set this plant apart from other syringa plants could be lost genetically through sexual reproduction. Therefore, sexual reproduction is prohibited and propagation is restricted to asexual reproduction by cuttings. Seed progeny from the new selection has not been observed.
