Campanula m1 
Belover 
In the eagerness these days for new things, some of the lovely old ones are all too often neglected. 
All the worthy old-timey plants have been greatly improved in every way. None more so than the Cam- 
panulas, known by our grandmothers as the Cup and Saucer plant, Bellflowers and Canterbury Bells. 
In their various sizes from the dwarfs up to those 3 feet high, some thriving in semi-shady places, others 
glorious in sunny spots, no garden can be quite complete without them. Some bloom continuously from June 
to October, giving a wealth of white and blue blooms. They are among the finest of the new fashion, old 
fashion flowers. So, be among the appreciative many who have called back to their gardens these out- 
standingly delightful ‘plants.
