Campanula glomerata (Clustered Bellflower)
Color Name: Bells and Whistles
Looking for a no-fuss perennial? Try Bells and Whistles, a clustered bellflower that's especially refined in terms of performance and flower quality. Well-formed clusters of blue flowers are packed onto rich, dark green foliage. These long blooming perennials are a great source of late spring and early summer color. A great choice for the gardener looking for a pollinator-friendly, deer resistant perennial.
Growing Tips: Keep the soil moist but make sure it is well-drained. Members of this group will grow in either full sun or partial shade, though some shade is recommended in areas with very hot summers. The delicate flower colors are best preserved with some shade. Cutting the plants back hard after flowering will keep them more compact and will help to prevent self-seeding. This action may also result in a second flush of blooms.
