Genus: Campanula

and one more for the list!! I'm seeing so many different campanulas and never tried them til last year!! Great plants.

Love d colour!!

beautiful

Yes Chris...We still do... I planted them in my Moms garden ages ago...but this is the first year I have come to truly appreciate their many faces, a cousin gave me the korean bellflower and the blue bellflower...I love them...the kb started blooming in late May and is still in flower!! nice to see all your pics Mcmneil...

Wow... I like the looks of this...and it's blue, too!

Thank you ladies

lovely colour janette

Beautiful :O

Often Joannie lol

Lovely colour. When we dug out for the patio we threw all our campanula in the skip.....ever done something then regretted it

Thank you Grenville it goes from deep blue to purple I love it myself

Stunning colour Janette

I really like this one, Andrew. I've never seen a double one like this before.

They are actually a deeper purple than this , but they come up just when other things are finishing so it is a good balance.

Nice rich colour on these!

You've captured it well too! It's a hard one to catch sometimes.

beautiful flower

Its now got pride of place in one of our containers alongside the Cerinthe. Thank you Spritz - they are lovely.

Another plant for my list...This looks similar to a blue that I have..but the petioles are longer..and the flowers have a pronounced droop...don't have the latin unfortunately...it was a gift.

I've got some of those growing from plug-plants! Can't wait for them to flower!

Beautiful. It reminds me of the annual "Lisianthus".

I don't know if I can get a rooted piece off for you but I'll have a look. It does root easily, like its purple brother!

iv not got his colour Spritz its lovely :D

Gorgeous! Ours is Telham Beauty - a darker blue with a lovely arching habit. Hoping it will self-seed like yours.

Do you know if Campanula and Cantebury Bells are related? This looks very similar to a CB that I once had.

Gorgouse Colour:O

Beautiful blue !

no, no thorns and definitely looses its leaves

I've just planted a white one!

I'm afraid I am not familiar with this one, and can't find it in any of my books. Does it have another name?

does it have thorns? I've had berberis before and was even so brave as to move the plants from an established location...as I recall the spine tips break off and leave little 'slivers' under the skin...It's a good deterrent in traffic areas...
cotoneaster has berries and is evergreen,

Yes, more rain last night. At least the water butt is full! :-)

These are great I want some nowwwwww

Nice shot. Has it been raining again?

Such apretty Soft Pink Spritz :)

I am pretty sure that this is Berberis, not boxwood. I did not plant it, but the leaves turn bright red and fall off in winter, so it's a pretty safe bet to assume that's what it is.

and contoneaster (or is it boxwood) and lilac(the heart shaped leaves?), and hedera...Plus the campanula. I'd say you've hit a jackpot! looks very promising.

I think they must do - they certainly spread!

I think some plants are a bit like naughty children, you love them but have to know the tricks to keeping them in line.

Lovely Spritz, do they self seed as well as other campanulas?

Beautiful flower

Beautiful ! I like the slight tinge of color that it has.

thanks Mcmneil thats a big help - your a little diamond!

It looks remarkably like C.carpatica to me.There is a pale lavender form called 'Turbinata'.I dont know if that will be of any help?

yes me too Mcmneil, this is just such a soft colour i had to have it - do you reconise it - it was'nt labled and i'm not sure how hardy it is.

I've definitely got a soft spot for campanulas.I love the colour.

Another childhood memory! We used to call them "Canterbury bells"

I love them also.!

I love the natural feel of this photo.

I love this plant and have it in my border aling the drive way. This plant is a good 'doer' not only does it have dense compact greenery but you are also rewarded with a stunning display of masses of flowers.Hel.xxx.

That's how I feel Flcrazy ! I think I have 4-5 different kinds and I'm looking for more !

I love this plant, I have several types of campanula. The more the merrier.! Love the pic.

I love this plant, it's so shiny it looks it's plastic and it blooms at least twice in a season. Great picture !
