Campanula persicifolia ‘Blue-eyed Blonde’
Golden Peachleaf Bellflower |
USDA Zone: 4-9 |
Plant number: 1.111.120
Colourful for both the foliage and leaves, this is a terriic perennial to use near the front of a sunny border or in containers. It forms a low mound of long, narrow bright yellow foliage, bearing taller stems in summer that hold deep violet-blue bells. Remove spent blossoms individually for continued blooming. In hot, humid summer regions this may benefit from afternoon shade to prevent scorching. An improvement over the older ‘Kelly’s Gold’ with better vigour and deeper coloured flowers. Most likely will prove hardy in Zone 3 or colder. A 2008 introduction from TerraNova Nurseries in Oregon. USPPP: unlicensed propagation prohibited. Registered with COPF.
