2. The Round-leaved Bell-flower, Campanula rotundifolia: = bluebell n. 1a.This application appears to have arisen in Scotland, where the Campanula is much more abundant than the wild hyacinth. Sometimes, with reference to the slender stalk, altered to hairbell, which Lindley tried to establish in this sense, leaving harebell to its original use in sense 1. Originally, in English use, ‘Bluebell’ was Campanula, ‘Harebell’ was Scilla, ‘Hair-bell’ non-existent.
