8 ENGLISH BOTANY. 
Sub-Genus I.— EU-CAMPANULA. (Campanula, Al. D. C.) 
Calyx-tube turbinate or cylindrical-turbinate, enlarged upwards. 
Corolla more or less bell-shaped. Capsule shorter than, or very 
slightly exceeding, the calyx-segments opening by pores towards 
the summit or near the base of the calyx-tube. 
SPECIES I.— CAMPANULA GLOMERATA. Linn.

Billot, FL Gall, et Germ. Exsicc. No. 1526. 
Rootstock short, oblique, woody. Stem erect, stout, hairy, 
simple. Radical leaves on long petioles, ovate or ovate - lance- 
olate, cordate, irregularly crenate ; lowest stem-leaves similar, but 
smaller ; upper ones sessile, and uppermost amplexicaul ; all 
finely pubescent above, and densely so beneath. Inflorescence 
a head, generally with an interrupted spike beneath it, definite, 
with the terminal flower opening first. Flowers erect, sessile, 
in a terminal head which is surrounded by an involucre of ovate- 
acuminate bracts, below which there are generally solitary flowers 
or 2 or 3 together in the axils of the leaves. Calyx-tube more or 
less hairy, without reflexed appendages in the angles between the 
segments ; segments lanceolate. Corolla tubular - campanulate ; 
segments sub-erect, about one-third of the whole corolla, ovate- 
acute. Stigmas 3. Capsule erect, opening by pores at the base 
of the calyx-tube. 
In sandy and chalky pastures and waste places. Rather 
common in England, except on the "West side of the island, 
extending North as far as Forfarshire. 
England, Scotland. Perennial. Late Summer. 
Stem 3 inches to 2 feet high, rather densely leafy, the radical 
leaves somewhat resembling those of Viola hirta, but narrower. 
Flowers 1 to 1£ inch long, bright bluish-purple, collected into a 
terminal head, with others beneath them ; but when the main stem 
is broken, the stem branches, and the flowers then have the appear- 
ance of being in panicles ; but this I have never seen on the unin- 
jured plant. Stem and under side of the leaves very thickly clothed 
with short white hairs, the upper side of the leaves much less 
thickly so. Clustered Bell-flower. 
French, Campanula Agglomeree. German, Gefcnauelte Glockenblmie.
