Campanula glomerata, Linn. One of the most variable: perennial, 1-2 ft., typically pubescent: st. erect, simple, terete: lvs. serrulate, lower ones rough with very short, stiff hairs, l½-3 in. long, 1-2 in. wide, with a cordate, ovate-oblong blade shorter than the petiole; upper ones sessile, ovate, acute: fls. violet-blue to white, in dense heads or glomes, 15-20 in the terminal heads, fewer in axillary ones. Eu., Armenia, Persia, Siberia; sometimes escaped in this country. Gn.M. 14:9. B.M. 2649 is var. speciosa, which has the largest fls. L.B.C. 6:505 is var. sparsiflora, with much smaller clusters.— This is one of the earliest flowering and easiest of cult. Fls. typically dark purple, running into lighter varieties. Var. dahurica, Hort., is probably the commonest form: terminal clusters 3 in. or more thick, a very characteristic infl. The fl. has a longer tube than C.lactiflora and C.thyrsoides. G. 26:305. Var. acaulis, Hort., is an almost stemless form with very large fls.: sts. only 3-5 in. high. G.W. 9, p. 272.
