Entrancing Coral Eells 
All season, the plants are trim and neat 
with their compact clumps of heart-shaped 
leaves that lend substance to the foreground 
of the border. Heuchera enjoys a long 
blooming season through June and July and 
is highly prized for the exquisite touch the 
buoyant sprays give to bouquets. 
PINK DELIGHT 
This charming new Heuchera has 24-in. sprays 
that are literally loaded with dainty old-rose bells 
with an intriguing touch of white at base. These 
lovely bells are delightfully attractive and un- 
believably abundant. An exceptionally strong 
grower, the loose, graceful spikes are very free- 
flowering during June and July. A marvelous 
mixer with most other perennials. A delight 
both in the garden and for airy bouquets.

LYTHRUM, Rosalie 
Salicaria Rosalie will further increase the modern vogue for 
Lythrum so accelerated by our introduction of The Beacon about 
three years ago. The lovely flowers are a captivating art shade 
of rose-pink which creates lovely color harmony in many lo- 
cations. Of wide adaptability, doing equally well in moist, 
shady borders and in open, dry locations—not subject to diseases. 
The graceful flowers are closely set on 2-ft. spikes that flower 
right down to the ground. Interesting foliage. Long season— 
blooms from July till frost. Height 2 ft.

LYTHRUM 
THE BEACON 
Salicaria For small bor- 
ders or large mass planting, 
the long-lasting, clear deep 
carmine-red flowers on 
large spikes are truly a 
beacon that adds sparkle | 
and interest to the garden; 
side spikes follow almost 
to the ground. Many who 
have The Beacon in their 
gardens have written us 
how much attention it at- 
tracts—so appealing, in 
fact, that some report utter 
strangers passing by have 
stopped to ask what the 
brilliant spikes were, so 
they could have them, too. 
You will prize Lythrum, 
the Beacon. The vigorous 
plants do well with ee 
tically no care; the foliage 
is willow-like and interest- | 
ing. Thrives equally in | 
wet semi-shade and open, | 
dry sun. Continuous, July | 
to frost. 314 to 4 ft.

HELIOPSIS 
SUMMER GOLD 
Incomparabilis The giant daisy-like 
semi-double 4-in. flowers have petals of 
mellow gold with slightly deeper 
centers. Prolific in growth, Summer 
Gold does not run away, but a clump 
of three will cover 4-5 feet. Continuous 
with its wealth of bloom from June 
till frost. One of the finest of border 
and background perennials, it is like- 
wise rich and magnificent in bold, 
massed plantings. A bouquet of Sum- 
mer Gold has a “‘special occasion”’ 
aspect. As the flowers finish, those 
which are not used for bouquets should 
be cut back, then new buds will form 
very quickly to continue the bloom.
