13.— CAMPANULA UCRANICA. THE UKRAINE CAMPANULA. 
petiolate, rough. Stem slightly branched. Flowers in a loose raceme, 
nearly all turned the same way ; peduncles solitary, one-flowered, 
nodding ; corolla funnel-shaped, half five-cleft, segments revolutc. 
SvNONYMES. — C. infundibuliformis, Sims. ; C. Lamiifolia, Horne ; 
C. crenata, Lin ; C. neglecta, Bess. 
Engravings. — Bot. Mag. t. 2632 ; and out fig. 6, in Plate 62. 
Specific Character. Leaves ovate, cordate, crenate, acuminate. 
Description, &c. — A very handsome species, which was introduced in 1817 from Vienna. It is said to be 
a native of the Ukraine. It is quite hardy. This is one of the species with creeping roots, which grow freely 
as long as they are suffered to remain in one place, but which are very difficult to remove, on account of the 
danger of wounding the fleshy roots. 
14.— CAMPANULA COLLINA, Bieb. THE HILL CAMPANULA. 
Synonyme. — The sage-leaved Bell-flower. 
Engravings. — Bot. Mag. t. 927 ; and our^^. 5, in PI. 62. 
Specific Character. — Stems simple ; lower leaves on long 
petioles ; ovate-oblong, crenulated ; middle ones lanceolate ; upper 
ones linear-acuminated ; flowers few, nearly secund, disposed in a 
long raceme ; calycine lobes erect, lanceolate, acuminated, much 
shorter than the corolla, which is funnel-shaped. 
Description, &c. — This species is remarkable for the reflexed segments of the corolla. The flowers are 
purple ; and the tube of the corolla is cup-shaped, and nearly hemispherical, with the segments rolled back, and 
so hairy on the inside as to deserve the epithet of bearded better than the species to which the specific name of 
barbata is applied. The species is a native of Mount Caucasus ; hut as it is an Alpine plant, and covered with 
snow during winter, it does not appear sufficiently hardy to hear severe frosts without protection. 
16.— CAMPANULA PULLA, Lin. THE DARK-COLOURED CAMPANULA. 
Synonvmes. — Campanula alpina, Bank. ,• the Austrian Bell- 
flower ; the Russet Bell-flower. 
Engravings. — Bot. Mag. t. 2492 ; Lodd. Bot. Cab. t. 554 ; Sweet’s 
Brit. Flow. Gard. 2d ser., t. 80 ; and our fig. 4, in PI. 62. 
Specific Character. — Stems dwarf, one-flowered ; leaves glabrous, 
crenately-toothed ; lower ones on short petioles, ovate-roundish ; 
upper ones sessile ; ovate-acute ; segments of the calyx acuminated, 
erect, shorter than the corolla, which is campanulate. 
Description, &c. — This is a rare Alpine plant, a native of Austria, remarkable for its delicacy and beauty. 
It resembles a little blue bell in the form of its flowers, but their colour is a dark purple, with a white rib at the 
point of junction between the petals j as, though the flowers of the Campanulas are called monopetalous, they 
are, in fact, composed of five petals, adhering together, which may be easily separated by a pin. This species 
flowers in July and August. It is a hardy perennial, and requires no other culture than planting it in common 
garden soil. From its dwarf stature, however, which rarely exceeds three inches, it is best adapted for 
rock-work. It was introduced in 1779- 
^ 3 — Capsules erect, dehiscing at the base. Flowers pedicellate. 
16.— CAMPANULA LACTIFLORA, Mars. THE MILK-FLOWERED CAMPANULA

panicled Bell-flower. 
Engravings. — Bot. Reg. t. 241 ; Bot. Mag. t. 1973 ; and our fig. 
2, in PI. 62. 
Specific Character. — Stem branched ; leaves sessile, ovate-lanceo- 
late, acutely serrated ; flowers in loose panicles ; calycine lobes very 
broad, serrulated, acute, twice shorter than the corolla ; capsule ovoid 
(G. Don). 
Description, &c. — This is a very handsome species, a native of Mount Caucasus. The stems frequentlj 
grow four feet high, and the flowers are generally produced in a leafy panicle. They are rather large, and opei 
widely, having only a very short tube. The species is hardy, but it requires a rich soil to grow it to perfection ;
