Bleuâtre L. Henry in Jardin, VIII. 175 (1894), “Variété nouvelle. Fleurs rouge vineux à l’extérieur; bleuâtres à l’intérieure. Inflorescences fortes et bien fournies, ” with single flowers. – Lemoine, Cat, no. 146, 24 (1900). – Catálogo Jeneral del Criadero de Arboles de “Santa Ines” (Nos. Chile, no. 5, año XXIV. [= 1912], 356, ” Grandes panículos de flores, reves de los pétalos rojo vinoso, con reflejos azulejos en la parte superior, colorido nuevo.”
Lemoine’s catalogue attributes this form to Baltet but does not state whether he was the producer or merely the distributor. It is listed in Baltet’s catalogue (1900-1901, 27) but no information is given as to its producer. Wister (House and Garden, March, 1926, 170) attributes it to Baltet but does not state his authority.
The Lilas bleuâtre which appears as a name only, in Oudin’s catalogue for 1846-1847, 10, is probably a reference to S. vulgaris rather than to this form.
