Campanula ‘Royal Wave’
Dwarf Hybrid Bellflower |
USDA Zone: 5-9 |
Plant number: 1.110.930
This recently introduced hybrid Bellflower is a terrific compact selection for planting near the border edge, using in mixed containers or in the rock garden. The small green leaves form a low mound, bearing a long succession of large, upfacing cup-shaped blooms. Flowers are violet-blue with a white center, and amazingly fragrant. Because this variety is sterile, flowering continues for many weeks with no deadheading required. Foliage is sturdy and quite heat resistant. USPP#17761: unlicensed propagation prohibited. Registered with COPF.
