It has been doubted whether this plant be not a mere 
variety of Campanuta bononiensis ; but, perhaps, the seg- 
ments of the calyx not being. reflexed, may be a sufficient 
character to keep them separate, although, in cultivated 
— little dependence can be placed upon the different 
egrees of pubescence. 
cae sim Pisieenised varieties of rapunculoides, of bono- 
the simplex of Decanpo.te, have, however, a 
very il near affinity, and may perhaps belong to one species, 
to be kept distinct wa, t e branched varieties. 7
