Campanula persicifolia blue form


Peachleaf Bellflower

USDA Zone: 2-9

Plant number: 1.110.350


Bellflowers are among the most popular of perennials. This species has been grown for centuries in cottage gardens, and is still an excellent choice for the border, or in mixed containers. Plants form a low mound of dark green leaves, bearing tall stems of large, open bright-blue bells during the summer months. Remove spent blooms to encourage more buds to form. Great for cutting. Easily divided in either spring or fall. An easy perennial for most sunny sites, this is a good selection for the beginning gardener, particularly.
