There are very few flowers in this extensive ge- 
nus but will readily remind the reader of the origin 
of their name, for they are in general true represen- 
tatives of little bells. 
Were the numerous species of Campanula 
brought together into one parterre, and properly 
arranged, we believe there would scarcely be a genus, 
taking the entire of the summer, that would excel 
them in beauty. Attempts have been made to divide 
it into smaller genera, but so naturally connected 
are nearly the whole of its members, that it has 
been deprived of few only. It has now about one 
hundred and fifty species, nine-tenths of which are 
perfectly hardy. 
It has long been the custom amongst cultivators 
of florists’ flowers, to adopt of such plants, some two 
or three particular sorts ; we wish that it would 
also become fashionable for those who delight 
in the perfection of their gardens, to pay primary 
attention to one or two genera; and as far as is 
possible, collect every species and remarkable var- 
iety of such genus. We suggest this to our readers, 
and would mention the following as suitable genera
