CAMPANULA 



late ; upper linear-lanceolate, sessile : calyx lobes awl- 

 shapcil, erect, one-third shorter than the corolla : fls. 

 racemose, or more or less panicled : style exserted : 

 capsule ovoid. Columbia river.— The capsular valves 

 are a little above the middle, while in C. Carpatica and 

 C. persicitolia they are near the apex. A rare western 

 American species.

 F.S. 21 : 2205, not L.B.C. 5: 485, which DeCandoUe state? 

 most emphatically is C. rotundifolia and nothing else. 

 The stera-lvs. of C. Scheuchzeri are distinctly serrate, 

 while in C. rolmuUfolia they are entire ; the flower- 

 buds nod in the former, but are erect in the latter. The 

 calyx lobes are relatively longer in C Scheuchzeri, and 

 perhaps the bell is deeper.

 tinct horticultural value are passing under these names, 

 but there seem to be no botanical or horticultural de- 

 sc riptions that will distinguish them.
