RARE PERENNIALS, ALPINE PLANTS 
11 
C A M PA N U LA —Continued. 
*laciniata —Biennial or monocarpic, but 
well worth growing for its rosettes of 
minutely downy and pale green foliage 
and immense crowded pyramids of large 
blue flowers, which are quite shallow and 
with a long protruding style. 18 inches. 
50c each. 
*laurii —Large lavender saucers on wiry 
stems, 6 to 10 inches high, from June to 
Aug. Water sparingly after July. 25c 
each. 
*macrorrhiza —For the rockwall and crev¬ 
ice. Warm vinous violet-colored bells on 
12-inch stems throughout the summer. 
50c each. 
♦Miranda —(bellardi Miranda) Tubby, sil¬ 
very-blue bells on 2 to 3 inch stems, 
borne in great profusion over the mats 
of pretty foliage. June to Aug. 35c each. 
♦muralls —(See portenschlagiana.) 
♦planiflora —A rare native from the Rocky 
Mts., suggesting a most condensed form 
of C. persicifolia. The leaves are smooth, 
leathery and scalloped, in a very com¬ 
pact tuh. The large round flat blue flow¬ 
ers sit very tightly on the 8 inch stems. 
Justly described by an eminent author¬ 
ity as “a very dressy little alpine.” This 
and the following should be in every col¬ 
lection. 75c each. 
♦planiflora alba —the pure white flowering 
form of the preceding. 50c each. 
♦portenschlagiana —Has a very long flow¬ 
ering period, June to Nov. Dense tufts 
of dark green foliage covered with pur¬ 
ple-blue bell-shaped flowers on 6 inch 
stems. 25c each. 
♦portenschlagiana minor —Somewhat more 
dwarf and compact in habit than preced¬ 
ing. The flowers are also smaller. 35c 
each. 
♦poscharskyana —In our opinion the best 
of the larger alpine species as far as 
flowering period is concerned. Will bloom 
from early May to late Sept., if cut back 
before seed sets. Trailing plant, with far- 
reaching prostrate sprays of grey-blue 
starry flowers, 1% inch or more across. 
25c each. 
♦pulla —A very pretty dwarf specie with - 
thread-like stems and deep purple bells. 
Prefers a little lime, full sun or light 
shade. 35c each. 
pusilla—See C. cochlearifolia. 
♦raddeana —Round, glossy leaves, sharply 
toothed at the edge. Branching sprays 
of large violet bells on 9 to 12 inch stems 
from June to Aug. Grows well and in¬ 
creases rapidly in any open soil and 
place. 25c each. 
♦rotundifolia C. M. Hark —(Bluebells of 
Scotland) Slender branching stems with 
very large flowers, more open than the 
type. June to Oct. 25c each. 
♦rotundifolia olympica — Native of the 
Olympic Mts. of Washington state. Size 
of flowers is double that of C. rotundi¬ 
folia. Habit is more compact and very 
drought resistant. 8 to 10 inches. May to 
Nov. 35c each. 
♦rotundifolia olympica var. alba —A rare 
form of the preceding, with large white 
flowers. 75c each.

rhomboidalis fl. pi. Double flowering 
form of C. rotundifolia, with lavender 
blue flowers. 50c each. 
♦rotundifolia Purple Gem — Large, richly 
colored bells all summer and fall. 35c 
each. 
♦sax if rag a —Tufted narrow foliage, which 
is attractive in itself. Large deep blue or 
purple-blue wide-open bell-shaped flow¬ 
ers on 6 to 8 inch stem from early May to 
July. Very choice and rare. A very gritty 
soil in full sun. 35c and 50c each. 
♦stansfieldi—A very rare and lovely hy¬ 
brid with short, hairy leaves and 4 to 6 
inch branches, stems ending in pendant 
bells of soft, warm violet. The demand 
for this variety is far greater than the 
supply. 50c and 75c each. 
♦tommasiniana —A late flowering treasure 
for the alpine garden, blooming from 
July to Sept. Long, narrow pale purple 
bells carried on slender, branching 8 to 
12 inch stems. 75c each. 
♦waldstelniana—A very rare species from 
Dalmatia for the limestone crevices or
