CALLIOPSIS [hA] This very graceful plant with its finely 

 cut foliage produces a wealth of brilliant flowers during a 

 long season. The blooms, about 1 H inches across, are daisy- 

 like in form, but their broad petals are slightly toothed at 

 the outside edges. It is of easy culture, and the bright 

 blossoms on their tall swinging stems are not only decorative 

 in the garden but make fine bouquets. From June until 

 late autumn there will be plenty of flowers especially, 

 if they are kept cut. The plants like the sunshine.

 Perennial Calliopsis (See Coreopsis) 



CAMPANULA This great family of plants might fancifully be 

 compared to a glorious "carillon," or set of chimes, for 

 they are all bell flowers. Some varieties carry large bells 

 and others tiny ones. No other family of flowers has a 

 greater wealth of material suitable for a greater variety of 

 places. Certain ones are tall and stately, well suited for 

 backgrounds in the hardy border, while other kinds are 

 dwarf and dainty, fit to grace a quiet rock garden. Their 

 colors are usually in the cool tones of white and blue. The 

 plants prefer a medium rich soil and do well even in half 

 shady spots. 



Medium or Canterbury Bejl [hB-2 ft.] Imposing branch- 

 ing plants heavily loaded With large pendant bells. The 

 flowers appear in white, various shades of blue, and even 

 in pink, which is a color only found in the medium class. 

 They are showy in the border. Although this member of 

 the family is usually grown as a hardy biennial, it may be 

 used as an annual if the seed is sown very early indoors 

 and transplanted when the weather becomes warm.

CANARY BIRD FLOWER [hA-C-6 ft.] Anyone who desires 

 a vine that is unique and out of the ordinary should try 

 this rapidly growing runner with its delicately cut leaves 

 and its curious bird-like flowers. The blossoms with their 

 fringed wings are pure yellow, and they are borne for a long 

 time in great profusion. The vine should be allowed to

Campanula, Carpatica 



CANDYTUFT [hA-1 ft.] These low-growing plants are some- 

 what like Sweet Alyssum, but both flowers and plants are 

 a little more open and larger. They are splendid for mass- 

 ing, for use in the border, and as cut flowers. They bear 

 quantities of single four-petaled blossoms in terminal 

 clusters. Their blooming period lasts several weeks. 

 Plenty of sunshine and only a moderate amount of water- 

 ing are conditions that favor their best development. 

 Umbellata These neat varieties are compact and have quite 

 broad tops which are liberally sprinkled with flat tight 

 clusters of small florets. Desirable for massing in beds and 

 for picking.
