The bellflower family (Campanulaceae) form a plant family within the order of the aster-like (Asterales). It has an almost worldwide distribution area. Some species and their varieties are used as ornamental plants .

Description and ecology

Blossom in detail of a variety of the peach-leaved bellflower ( Campanula persicifolia ): In the radially symmetrical blossom the five blue petals are fused, the five yellow stamens wither and the three stigmas are pollinable ( proterandry ).

Appearance and leaves

They are mostly perennial or rarely annual herbaceous plants ; it is rarely sub-shrubs , shrubs or trees . Milky sap is usually contained in shoot axes and leaves, but also in other parts of plants. They thrive as anchored submersed or emersed hydrophytes to xerophytes . Often rhizomes are formed as permanent organs.

The basal, or mostly alternate, rarely opposite or whorled arranged leaves sometimes have a leaf sheath, usually a more or less long petiole and a leaf blade. The leaf blades are usually simple and then linear to circular, or simply palm or pinnate, or rarely assembled and then pinnate. Most species have small, white glands on the mostly notched, serrated or serrated leaf margin. But they never have glands on the leaf surfaces. Anomocytic stomata may be present on either or both leaf surfaces . Stipules are never present.

Inflorescences and flowers

The flowers are solitary or laterally or terminally sometimes on inflorescence shafts in simple or branched, zymöse , racemose , spiked or doldigen inflorescences . There are foliage-like to reduced bracts present, rarely missing. In some species, the inflorescence forms a pseudanthium , i.e. a flower .

The mostly medium-sized to large, hermaphrodite flowers are usually five-fold with a double flower envelope . There are both subfamilies with zygomorphic and those with radial symmetry flowers; For example, in Campanuloideae one finds radial symmetry and in Lobelioideae zygomorphic, resupinate flowers. A secondary calyx is present in a few taxa . The mostly five sepals are fused with each other and with the ovary (not so with Cyananthus ) and there are usually five (rarely three, four or ten) calyx teeth. For example, in Campanula , the sepals have appendages at their base. The five petals are fused, with the radial symmetry often bell-shaped and with the zygomorphic mostly two-lipped and there are usually five (rarely four or ten) corolla lobes. The colors of the petals range from the most common shades of blue, also from white to yellow or, more rarely, orange and from pink to red to purple. There is only one (the outer) circle with five fertile stamens ; they can be free or fused to one another and they can be free of the petals or fused close to the base of the petals. The dust bags can all be connected, have two counters and they open with a longitudinal slot. The two- or three-celled pollen grains , depending on the genus , rarely have two, mostly three to twelve apertures and are colpat, porat, colporat (colporoidat), foraminat or rarely rugat. Two, three or five carpels are at a two-, three-, five- or rarely zehnkammerigen by a false septum ovary grown; he is superior or subordinate (see subfamilies). Sometimes the ovary is crowned with a ring-shaped or tubular nectarium . Each ovary chamber contains ten to fifty horizontal, anatropic, unitegmic, tenuinucellate ovules in mostly central angled placentation . The stylus has pollen-collecting hairs at the top and ends in two, three or five scars. It is mostly proterandry with a secondary pollen presentation.

The flower formula is: or or

Pollination is often carried out by insects ( entomophilia ), for which very special mechanisms have been developed to promote cross-pollination, for example through special changes in the style or sterile tissue that covers the scars during anthesis .

Fruits and seeds

There are usually poricidale, septicidale or loculicidale capsule fruits formed with flaps or the genus bellflowers ( Campanula open) with holes for spreading the many seeds. But there are also taxa that produce berries . The small seeds have a lot usually oily, often starchy endosperm and a straight, chlorophyll-less embryo with two cotyledons ( cotyledons ). The seeds can be winged or wingless.

ingredients

Inulin has been found in many taxa . Polyacetylenes occur. Alkaloids are mostly present. Cystolites are often present in leaves.
