AND THE WILDERNESS BLOSSOMED 



dance of seed, a little tedious to gather ; but as the 

 seeds are small a modest quantity will be all that 

 you will need to keep up the species in your 

 garden. It blooms profusely from July 5th till 

 August 1st, and sparingly as late as September. 



C. glomerata grows about eighteen inches high, 

 and bears clusters of rich dark purplish-blue flowers, 

 from the 19th of July to the ist of August. It 

 is good for cutting and decoration, and is an 

 attractive feature in the garden. I have not suc- 

 ceeded in raising it from seed. 



C^jrawii^flAj, Chimney Campanula, or STEEt»LE 

 Bellflower, is the tallest of the genus, growing 

 in favorable localities to a height of six feet. The 

 flowers are generally blue, though there is a white 

 variety, and the bloom continuous for nearly two 

 months in summer. It is not diflicult to raise 

 from seed, and this should be done yearly, as the 

 plant is apt to die out after blooming once or 

 twice. Indeed, all varieties of Canty anula ought 

 to be treated as biennials, and a few plants raisgd 

 every year, if you would keep up the supply. 

 The seed does best with me when planted in 

 the spring. 



C. latifolia grows to a height of two feet or 

 more, bearing small blue tubular-shaped flowers.
