Wahlenbergia is a genus of herbs and subshrubs found primarily in the southern temperate regions (Black & Robertson 1965).

Characters (from Black & Robertson 1965): Annual and perennial herbs and undershrubs. Flowers usually blue, pedunculate, often in terminal, dichotomous leafy panicles. Calyx and corolla-lobes mostly 5, rarely 4 or in abnormal flowers 6 to 10; corolla regular, campanulate, seldom almost rotate; stamens 5, free; ovary inferior, 3–5-celled, rarely 2-celled; capsule loculicidal, opening by apical valves surrounded by persistent calyx-teeth.

Campanula

Carpathian bellflower Campanula carpatica, copyright Ghislain Chenais.


Belongs within: Campanuloideae.
Contains: Jasione, Edraianthus, Githopsis, Asyneuma, Phyteuma, Adenophora.

Campanula, harebells, is a diverse genus of herbs found in the Northern Hemisphere with tubular to bell-shaped flowers (Hickman 1993). Phylogenetic analysis indicates the genus to be extensively non-monophyletic with many taxa treated as distinct genera arising within it.

Characters (from Hickman 1993): Annual or perennial, from taproot, fibrous roots, or rhizome, glabrous to densely hairy. Stem reclining or erect, branched, 5–150 cm, four-angled. Leaves cauline, sometimes also basal, generally lanceolate to ovate, thin, fleshy, or leathery, entire to toothed, sessile or petioled. Inflorescence a raceme, panicle, or flowers solitary, terminal or axillary. Flower with corolla cylindric to funnel- or bell-shaped, white to deep blue, lobes linear to triangular; ovary inferior, hemispheric to obconic. Fruit dehiscing by two or three lateral pores. Seeds 2 mm, oblong.

Lobelia

Edging lobelia Lobelia erinus, copyright H. Zell.


Belongs within: Campanulaceae.
Contains: Downingia, Cyanea, Siphocampylus.

Lobelia is a cosmopolitan genus of herbaceous plants with resupinate flowers due to a twisted peduncle. Recent phylogenetic studies have indicated that the genus as commonly recognised is non-monophyletic with a number of other lobelioid genera nested within it.

Characters (from Black & Robertson 1965): Herbs; flowers in some species dioecious by sterility of anthers in females and of small ovary in males. Sepals 5; corolla-tube slit to base on upper or posterior side, two upper lobes more deeply separated and forming more or less distinct upper lip, lower lip three-lobed, spreading, two protuberances frequently present in throat below; filaments inserted at base of corolla and often united to each other aboe middle; anthers united in an oblique ring around style; stigma two-lobed, usually with ring of collecting hairs below it and exserted beyond anthers in female or bisexual flowers; ovary two-celled; capsule opening at summit loculicidally in two valves.
