The  Hardy  Perennial  Campanulas  is  a  m 
are  among  onr  best-known  hardy  per-  forminf 
eunial  plants.  All  are  very  ornamental  much  b 
and  useful.  The  dwarf  sorts  make  splen-  a  ted  l\v 
did  border  plants,  while  the  tall-growing  ers,  ea< 
sorts  are  not  only  excellent  decorative  the  ox- 
garden  plants,  but  are  fine  for  cutting,  a  rath 
The  following  sorts  are  the  most  popular  grown 
of  this  class  and  perhaps  the  best  adapt-  in  May 
cd  for  general  garden  culture.  Cavpatica  in  the 
(Carpathian  harebell),  blue  and  white,  roscum 
grows  about  eight  inches  high,  fine  for 
edging,  blooms  in  June  and  July. 
Persici  folia  (peach  hells),  blue  and 
white,  grows  about  four  feet  high,  large 
bell-shaped  flowers  iu  June  aud  July, 
fine  for  cutting.  Pyramidalis  (chimney 
bell-flower),  by  far  the  most  conspicuous 
of  all  the  Campanulas,  growing  four  to 
six  feet  high,  with  long  spikes  tbb'k'y 
studded  with  medium-sized  bell-shaped 
flowers  in  August,  blue  aud  whi.te.  Seed 
of  the  perennial  Campanulas  should  be 
sown  iu  Spring  or  early  Summer,  and 
the  young  plants  handled  in  the  same 
manner  as  directed  for  Canterbury  bells, 
or  they  may  be  allowed  to  complete  the. 
season's  growth  in  the  seed  bed  and  trans¬ 
planted  to  the  border  or  garden,  the  fol¬ 
lowing  Fall  or  Spring. 
Centaurka,  —  The  Ceutanroas  are 
quite  easily  grown  from  seed  and  are  of 
easy  culture.  Macrocephula  (yellow), 
Puleherrima  (pink),  and  Montana  (blue 
and  white)  are  the  best  of  the  hardy 
Centaureas;  all  bear  large  thistle-like 
flowers,  are  very  useful  for  garden 
decoration  and  cut  flowers,  lasting  a  long 
time  when  cut  and  placed  in  water.  Seed 
should  be  sown  iu  the  cold  frame  or  flats 
in  early  Summer,  the  young  plants  prick¬ 
ed  off  into  small  pots  or  flats,  and  trans¬ 
planted  to  permanent  quarters  iu  early 
Autumn,  or  they  may  be  Sown  about 
August  first,  and  transplanted  to  perm¬ 
anent  quarters  the  following  Fall  or  early 
Spring.

the  best  variety  of  this  interesting  and 
useful  hardy  plant.  It  grows  two  to 
three  feet  high,  producing  its  large,  grace¬ 
ful  golden  yellow  flowers  in  the  greatest 
profusion,  being  at  its  best  about  the

decorative  flowers  for  cutting.  Seed  may
