Plate 9556 - Campanula incurva

Curtis's Botanical Magazine - Plate 9556 Campanula incurva Family: Campanulaceae • Native Region: Greece • Publication Date: January 1st, 1934 Distribution: Greece; mountains of Thessaly and • Tab Author: E. MILNE-REDHEAD Botanical Description A number of plants, grown in the Herbarium experimental ground at Kew which had flowered in the previous summer were examined in December. They had formed dense tufts of leaves which were developed on short lateral branches and which were held erect instead of being adpressed to the ground in a rosette. It is possible that, in the rather more severe conditions of its native habitat, the species might die after flowering. Whether C. lanata agrees with C. incurva in this respect, or whether it is strictly monocarpic it is difficult to judge from herbarium material.
