34 WALL AND WATER GARDENS 



Moneywort {Lysimachia nummularid) will be beauti- 

 ful hanging down among the Ferns, and associated 

 with Corydalis capnoides. Waldsteinia fragoides, with its 

 bright yellow bloom and brightly polished leaves, must 

 not be forgotten. 



Campanula, that large genus that yields species of 

 the highest beauty for nearly every kind of gardening, 

 will be represented by several; by C carpatica and 

 C. turbinata, as good in shade as in sun, by the tallest 

 of all, C. pyramidalisy a grand wall-plant in the milder 

 parts of our climate, and by the handsome C. lati- 

 folia (best in the white form) and by some of the 

 smaller kinds, which will include C. pusilla and the 

 lovely dwarf C. ccespitosa, both pale blue and white. 

 They run along the joints, throwing up their little 

 bells in such quantities that they jostle one another 

 and are almost overcrowded. The branch of the 

 same family detached under the name of Symphy- 

 andra contains some charming flowers that thrive 

 in such a place as the cool dry wall, S.pendula doing 

 well ; here also S. Hoffmanni would be at home. 



Arenaria balearica is described elsewhere as a capital 

 cool wall-plant, growing up from below ; not only 

 rooting in the joints but clothing the whole face of 

 the stones with a kind of close skin of its tiny stalk 

 and leaf, so that every stony hollow and projection 

 can be clearly traced through it. A. montana has 

 larger flowers and a difl^erent way of growth, but it 

 is a good plant for the wall. 



Two little plants of neat growth and small white 

 bloom should have a place — Hutchinsia alpina and
