Inflorescence of Syringa vulgaris
Syringa vulgaris L.
The inflorescence is a defining morphological characteristic of the ornamental value of Syringa vulgaris L., expert-evaluated based on its structure, density, linear dimensions, and overall abundance of blooming on the shrub.
In the reference 18 varieties crop Common lilac, where this is mentioned in the description.
In the practice of breeding and variety testing of common lilac, inflorescences are characterized by their shape, for example, narrowly pyramidal, and density, which is classified as loose, medium, or dense. Morphological analysis is conducted on fully developed specimens, whereby the decorative value of a variety is determined not only by the linear dimensions of the inflorescence but also by its ability to form a visual "color spot."
The assessment of the plant's appearance is carried out using a 5-point scale, where indicators are compared with reference varieties within specific cultivar groups. In addition to ornamental properties, an important breeding trait is the vase life of cut inflorescences, and the combination of parameters of the shape and structure of the inflorescence serves as a key tool for varietal identification.
