LYTHRUM, Morden’s Pink 
Another outstanding new member of the 
Lythrum family, which comes to us 
from Canada. Generous full spikes of a 
clear lovely soft pink; has a more open 
growth than either The Beacon or 
Rosalie... the other two outstanding 
varieties we recommend. 
Like the other two members of its 
family, Morden’s Pink is perfectly hardy 
and will thrive in wet or dry places in 
your garden whete its generous profusion 
of clear pink spikes add height and in- 
terest to the landscape. 
The lovely clear pink blends well with 
all other colors in your garden and is 
particularly useful because it is at its 
peak in July and August. Effective in 
large masses or in smaller groups in the 
borders. It should be used generously.

OUR garden can be more beautiful and more satisfying if only the outstanding varieties 
Ys of perennials are used in it. Here we offer the plants which have shown definite superi- 
ority after exhaustive tests by the J. & P. Department of Plant Research. These will 
make your garden more lovely because they have better color, longer periods of bloom, larger 
flowers, more fragrance, greater vigor, or other more desirable characteristics than their pred- 
ecessors, which make these truly ‘‘Modern Perennials.’’ Our goal is to select the finest 
varieties from the thousands of perennials available, and to determine those which will give 
flower-lovers the greatest degree of satisfaction for the least possible effort. The plants we 
recommend for your garden will be found on the following pages... the best perennials in 
America pass in review in this truly ‘‘Modern Parade.”’ 

Polemonium is easy to grow and will thrive in 
partial shade. Its delicate color and profusion 
of bloom make it worthy of a prominent place 
in your garden. It blooms at the same time as 
iris and bleeding-heart.
