CAMEL'LIA, Nat. Ord. Ternstromia'cece. 

 Favourite winter and spring flowering shrubs of great beauty. The amateur, in sowing 

 the seed we offer, has a fair chance of raising really valuable varieties ; we may just add, 

 that seedlings make the finest stock-plants on which to graft others, being more vigorous 

 than plants from cuttings ; succeed in sandy peat and loam. Half-hardy shrubs.

CAMPANULA, Nat. Ord. Camjmnula'cea;. 

 A genus of exceedingly beautiful plants, characterised by the variety of their colours, 

 profuj^ion and duration of their bloom. Some of them arc remarkable for their stately 

 growth, others for their close compact habit ; of the former, C. ])yramidalis gi-own in pots, 

 placed about terraces, gravel walks, or the margins of lawns, produces a most striking effect. 

 Visitors to Paris may have been struck with the free use made of this plant in the public 

 gardens. Of the dwarf varieties, C. Carpatiea is a most valuable bedding-plant. The whole 



genus deserves a prominent place in every garden.
