Who Ever Heard of 
7,000 BLOOMS 
One Single Plant? 
From 
DOWN FROM THE WILDS 
OF CANADA came news of an 
amazing discovery! A huge, mag- 
nificently beautiful plant that 
grew five feet tall by five feet 
wide, and covered itself with 
17,000 fiery pink blossoms! 
A spectacular plant that was 
literally a forest of beauty—that 
sent up 50...100...200 magnifi- 
cent flowering spikes—and then 
crowned those spikes with flam- 
ing torches of solid bloom—200 | 
flowering torches up to 2% 
feet high! 
A plant that was so hardy that it 
survived in swamps, deserts,snow- | 
swept plains...that was so pro- 
ductive that it would actually 
CHOKE OUT WEEDS that were 
competing with it for space...that 
was so fantastically easy to grow 
that you could cut two, three and | 
four thousand blossoms from it 
THE VERY FIRST SEASON 
ALONE, and then COUNT EVEN 
MORE BLOSSOMS REMAINING 
IN BLOOM ON THE PLANT! 
And now here is how you can 
actually get this amazing plant to 
turn your garden into the show- 
place of your neighborhood, and 
do it FOR LESS THAN A FRAC- 
TION OF A PENNY FOR EVERY 
HUNDRED BLOOMS! 
This spring, how would you 
like to grow a plant in your gar- 
den that probably none of your 
neighbors have ever seen before 
in their entire lives...that they | 
never even dreamed existed...that 
they may not even believe is real 
until they’ve walked up to it and 
touched it with their own hands! 
How would you like to grow a 
plant that you simply place into @ 
the ground this spring...that you § 
leave almost entirely alone...that 
you simply “plant and forget” 
until this June, and then you will 
have a magnificent, traffic-stop- 
ping prize—already five feet high 
by three feet wide—already pre- 
senting you with your first thou- 
sand blooms? How would you like 
to grow a plant that gives you an 
average of 1,000 new blooms a 
week in June, July, August and 
September? A plant that can eas- 
ily give you more separate, ex- 
quisite, violet-sized flowers in one 
weekend than you could have 
dreamed possible to grow in an 
entire summer! A plant'that can 
constantly produce enough flam- 
ing clusters...each up to 2% feet 
high...that you can cut and place 
in your own home...in your neigh- 
bor’s house...in every house on 
your block, all summer long? 
This is the plant that was dis- 
covered in one of Canada’s lead- 
ing agricultural stations—entirely 
by accident! 
For years, top Canadian hy- 
bridizers in Morden, Manitoba, 
had been experimenting with a 
fantastic European plant—called 
Lythrum for its magnificent 
purple color. These men were try- 
ing to see what would happen to 
this plant when top hybridizers 
started to work on it—to change 
its growing habits—to produce a 
super-blooming new breed of 
plant that the world had never 
seen before! And then one 
morning, walking into their test 
fields, they had Nature’s answer! 
There, in all that sea of purple, 
one single branch had turned a 
fiery, red-pink in color! And not 
only red—but the deepest, most 
beautiful, most glowing reddish- 
pink these men had ever seen! 
And this one pink spike was not 
merely one foot in length, as the 
others had been, but it stretched 
out to 21% feet of SOLID BLOS- 
SOMS~—as long as the outstretched 
arm of every one of these men! 
And not only were there dozens 
and dozens of perfect, exquisitely- 
formed blossoms on this branch, 
but each one of these blossoms 
was 1% times ag large as they 
had ever seen before...each one 
of these breathtaking blossoms 
was the same exact size as a mag- 
nificent prize-winning violet! 
Breathlessly, these Canadian 
hybridizers took this one priceless 
branch, and severed it from the 
mother plant. Carefully, they 
rooted it into a new plant... 
separated it from the entire rest 
of the field...grew a second plant 
as magnificent as the first...and 
then 5...10...50...100...200 mag- 
nificent plants, springing up into 
a field of fantastic beauty that 
had never been seen before by 
human eyes! 
These men discovered that 
this new, “Morden-Pink” pro- 
duced very little seed...that in- 
stead it took the energy that most 
plants devote to seed, and used 
that energy to send up—not 10— 
not 20—not 50—but 200 mag- 
nificent flowering spikes...a 
flaming mass of beauty 5 feet 
high by 5 feet wide...the entire 
plant buried under so many indi- 
vidual blossoms that they grew 
tired and quit at the 17,000 mark! 
These hybridizers discovered that 
these plants would survive sub- 
arctic frosts, where the tempera- 
tures plunged to 20 below zero... 
and that they would bloom in 
fierce, summer heat just as well. 
They discovered that they would 
bloom in full sun or shade. That 
they were so strong, so hardy that 
they would grow in almost any 
garden soil whatever — whether 
that soil is wet, dryish, clayey or 
sandy! 
These men discovered that this 
plant was so eager to live that 
it would grow, bloom and bloom 
again and again, all summer long, 
even with its roots buried under 
water! That it would give you 
fresh masses of bloom almost 
daily—from June to July, August,

September, sometimes right up to 
frost! They discovered that this 
plant was almost completely free 
from insects or disease—that no 
insect, no plant disease could fade 
its fantastic beauty! And finally, 
these men discovered that this 
plant grew more beautiful with 
each passing year! That it gave 
you five, six, seven thousand 
blooms its very first year! That it 
easily gave you 17,000 blooms its 
second year! And that every year 
thereafter, it continued to give 
you new value and beauty...that 
you could actually divide each 
single plant into 10, 12, even 15 
new plants...an unending parade 
of gigantic 5-foot traffic-stoppers 
—as many as 100,000 magnificent 
blooms—surrounding your home 
with living walls of fiery beauty!
