Campanula sarmatica
Georgian Bellflower |
USDA Zone: 4-9 |
Plant number: 1.110.590
Native to the Caucasus region in the Republic of Georgia, this charming Bellflower species is a good choice for a sunny rock garden. It forms a low tuft or mound of crinkly arrow-shaped grey-green leaves, bearing upright stems in summer that hold dangling soft lavender-blue bells with flaring petals. Prefers a moist site with excellent drainage in winter. Also suitable for edging borders or at the top of a rock wall. While many Bellflower species are gobbled by slugs and snails, this one may be more resistant because of the hairy leaves.
