Seeds of Perennials 
Platycodon (Balloon or Japanese Bellflower) 
Nat. Orel. Carapanulacea 
In many books they are offered either as Campanula or Wahlenborgia. A very 
hardy plant, succeeding in all kinds of soil and location. The tuberous roots pro¬ 
duce a cluster of handsome foliage, from which arise several slender flower-shoots, 
which, when unsupported, have the habit of bending to the ground and rising again, 
so that, to be neat in appearance the plants should have a slight support. From the 
upper part of these slender stems appear the interestingly formed flowers in July, 
and from that time on they grace the plant uninterruptedly for nearly eight weeks. 
The buds, just previous to opening, have all the appearance of an inflated balloon, 
while, when open, they are of a cup-shape and star formation. Space, 1 foot.
