Campanula Carpatica 
Campanula Rotundifolia 
Campanula = Bell ft lower 
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 Campanulas, 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 
outstandingly delightful plants. 
Culture. A rich, well-drained, light soil will grow them to perfection. 
It is well to protect fall-transplanted plants with a little dry covering; 
remove covering early in March before new growth starts. Plant in early 
autumn or very early spring, 8 to 10 inches apart, in full sun.

(Carpathian Harebell.) A pretty species growing in compact tufts

the hardy border or for the rockery it is unsurpassed.

garden.
