PHACELIA CAMPANULARIA. 



This California annual has received a first-class certificate from 

 the Royal Horticultural Society of England, where it was intro- 

 duced a few years ago through Messrs. Parish. In habit it resem- 

 bles the well known Phacelia Whitlavia (Whitlavia grandiflora of 

 seedsmen), but it has a more spreading and bushy habit of growth 

 and produces a greater abundance of flowers. The campanulate 

 flowers are large and numerous, violet purple or deep gentian blue, 

 produced in terminal racemes of from twelve to twenty or more 

 flowers which are developed in succession. Each flower is about 

 three fourths of an inch across, of an erect campanulate form, with 

 a spreading five lobed limb, and a short funnel shaped tube, marked 

 in the throat with fine oblong white spots. An average plant will 

 cover nine square inches of ground in cultivation according to an 

 English grower. 



Its greatest attraction rests on its large and numerous satiny 

 blue flowers, of a shade rivaling that of Salvia patens. It is a na- 

 tive of Southern California, where it was first found, in the mount- 

 ains back of San Diego, by Daniel Cleveland and described by Dr. 

 Asa Gray in his Synoptical Flora of North America, vol. ii, p. 164.
