Lythrum virgatum 'Morden's Gleam'

Loosestrife

Morden’s Gleam is a seedless, non-invasive Loosestrife.  In July and August it bears beautiful tall spikes of pinkish-purple flowers.  Its cousin, Purple Loosestrife, is banned in many states, including Missouri, because a single plant produces as many as 2 million seeds, making it highly invasive and destructive in wetlands.
