Campanula glomerata 
acaulis differs in the 
(lowering stems being but 
an inch or so high. 15 cts. 
each, $1.25 per doz. 
C. Fergusonii is a hybrid 
between the Chimney Bell- 
flower and C. carpatica. 
The stems are about 18 
inches high and the large 
blue flowers are borne for 
a long time. Good. 35c. ea. 
C. caespitosa a tufted 
sort, 4 to 6 inches high, 
with bell-shaped, nodding 
light blue flowers. For 
rockwork or pots. 25 cts. 
each. 
C. Grossekii is a most 
excellent plant for many 
purposes. Either few or 
many in the garden will 
give a fine effect with the 
purplish lavender, slender 
bells. It brightens a shady 
bed, while to plant in mass- 
planting with foxgloves, 
harmonizes well in habit, 
and continues the season 
of such a bed for months 
after the foxgloves have 
done flowering. About 2 
feet high. 15 cts. each, 
$1.25 per doz. 
C. persicifolia is the 
Peach-leaved Bellflower 
and one of the very best of 
all perennial plants. The 
foliage is mostly at the 
base and is handsome and 
an excellent foil for other 
plants. The clumps spread 
into broad masses and the 
strong, erect stems, pro- 
ducing many large, bell- 
shaped flowers on stems 
2 to 3 feet high, of clear 
blue or pure white, make 
a superb mass. Plant a 
foot to 16 inches apart in 
a well-worked soil, in sun 
or light shade. Let alone 
for two years as the plants 
are quite impatient when 
disturbed. I have both white and blue. Strong clumps, 15 cts. each, $1.25 per doz. 
C. persicifolia Moerheimei is the double white form, and a most excellent cut-flower, 
as well as fine in the garden. 20 cts. each, $2 per doz. 
C. pyramidalis. The prince of all is the Chimney Bellflower. There are varieties 
which make compact plants 4 to 5 feet high, while others grow as high as 10 feet, with 
a perfect sheet of handsome flowers produced through months of the fall. These are 
very fine in a mass, by themselves, or alternating with perennial larkspurs which they 
admirably supplement. Strong plants potted in spring make very fine veranda or 
court ornaments, or household decoration on special occasions. They group well with 
hollyhocks also; 25 cts. each, $2 per doz. Large plants of C. pyramidalis suitable for 
pots, at 35 cts. each. 
Campanula persicifolia. Flowers blue or white bell-shaped
