Campanula Punctata, var. Marian Gehring. — ^^v^' 
good reports from this plant. It seems to give best results when planted in a 
mass of half a dozen or more. A new perennial Canterbury Bell. Grows from 
2 to 3 feet high, one to many stems from a single plant. Lower leaves round, 
heart-shaped, strongly toothed, 4 to 6 inches wide, on petioles 4 to 7 inches 
long. It spreads from subterranean stolons and does not bear seed. A single 
plant will form a strong clump 2 feet or more in diameter, and the flowers are 
f)roduced in loose racemes in great profusion. The color of the flowers is pale 
avender, and in size they are nearly as large as those of the Canterbury Bell, 
though more graceful. The flowering season extends over a period of from four to 
six weeks, after which there is a more straggling succession of bloom until frost. 
This form originated in the garden of Dr. J. G. Gehring, of Bethel. Maine, and 
was found growing near a colony of Campanula Punctata, near which one 
soUtary specimen of a Canterbury BeU (Campanula Medium) was in bloom. 
Since it produces no seed, and has some of the characteristics of both the above 
species, it is reasonable to suppose it a natural hybrid between the two plants.
