A BRILLIANT MASS OF PORCELAIN BLUE! 
The CAMPANULA EDW. MOLYNEAU in a border planting, a hardy, easily grown 
perennial, rare and beautiful. (See page 15.) 
The glorious possibilities of Campanulas for the amateur’s garden, especially near the 
Pacific Coast, are, for most of us, a closed book; but it would be difficult to find any other 
hardy perennial that offers so much variety of beauty and form and yet is so easy to grow 
under ordinary conditions. 
There are more than 200 kinds of 
Campanulas; tall kinds from one to 
eight feet high, many trailing and creep- 
ing kinds ideal for the rock garden and 
low border planting. They furnish liber- 
ally the blue shades so desired in gar- 
dens; some are white, but all shades 
of blue and purple are represented. They 
are extremely easy of culture and, so 
far as we have found, are quite immune 
to attack from pest or disease. Above 
all, they are perennials with few ex- 
ceptions, such as the familiar Canter- 
bury Bell, a biennial; once planted they 
take care of themselves, withstand hard 
frost, and only need, in some cases, to 
be divided every few years. Most of the 
Campanulas make fine, long-lasting cut 
flowers, the buds continuing to open 

in water. 
From our large variety we select the 
Pot-grown plant of CAMPANULA kinds listed below because they are 
ELATINOIDES, blue with white eye. (See p. 15.) suited to average conditions and are not
