Wholly enchanting little rock garden plants meet here 
with great showy border beauties. All are easy.

let above brilliant green mats. Likes gravelly soil. Pkt. '20c. 
21 CAMPANULA ALLIARAEFOLIA—ecbx(3)36. A vast 
number of wide white bells sway on the many stems, these 
arranged in vase fashion. A vigorous, handsome species, 
particularly recommended for the hardy perennial border. 
Pkt. 10c; A oz. 20c; % oz. 35c. (Plants, each 25c; 3 for 65c.) 
21 CAMPANULA BELLARDI—erx(3) 8 . Green mats, with

indigo approachments. Pkt. 15c. 
21 CAMPANULA BONONIENSIS—ecbx(3-5)30. There is a 
Hyacinth suggestion about the crowded, flower-filled, near¬ 
leafless spikes, though these are a bit too slender and spire¬ 
like for a Hyacinth. Rather small flowers, lavender to vio¬ 
let, closely crowded, stand out at odd angles to the stem.

midnight violet, but always it is dependably good, perennial 
enduringly. Pkt. 15c. 
21 CAMPANULA LACTIFLORA COERULEA—ecrbx(3-4) 
30. Great spreading domes of wide, upfacing saucer-stars, 
held high above the foliage. The color is a delightful soft

21 CAMPANULA LASIOCARPA—erx(2)8. Star-bell. Wide 
starry bells of soft mid-blue, each one so large on plant so

vestige of leaf and stem. Pkt. 20c. 
21 CAMPANULA OLYMPICA—erbx(3)25. Loose showers 
of luminous violet star-bells on wiry stems. Pkt. 15c.

(Plants, each 35c.) 
21 CAMPANULA PUNCTATA—ecrbx(3)28. A noble Bell¬ 
flower from mountain meadows of Japan. Rugged companiles

big, pendant “Foxglove” bells, waxen without, downy and 
red-punctate within. Colorings range from translucent 
creamy pinkness, through lilac, to vinous purple. An en¬ 
during perennial, decorative, but decidedly different in effect 
from all other Campanulas (save C. nobilis). Illustrated, page
