Campanula Medium or Canterbury Bells 



Mrs. Ely, author of "A Woman's Hardy Garden," says: 



"The seeds should be sown by mid-April, in finely prepared, rich soil— the colors in 

 separate rows — and if the weather is dry, they should be given a thorough watering 

 late every afternoon. By the ISth of July the little plants should be transplanted 

 either to the places where they are to bloom the following summer, or else 

 they may be set out temporarily in rows about a foot apart, the plants eight 

 inches apart, and finally transplanted early in October. Some evergreen 

 branches, or a little straw or coarse hay, thrown over them when the ground 

 begins to freeze, makes all the winter covering these plants require." 



Calycanthema {Cup and Saucer Canterbury Bells). 

 This is unquestionably the finest type of this old- 

 fashioned and much prized garden plant. They differ 

 from the ordinarj' type in having an extra large calyx, 

 which is of the same color as the flower, giving the 

 appearance of a cup and saucer. They are effective 

 either in the garden or grown in pots for conservatory 

 or table decoration. We offer them in separate colors, 

 as well as in mi.xture, viz.:
