Notes
Bellflower (Campanula incurva) is a perennial for naturalized areas. It is hardy to USDA zone 6, or down to -10°F (-23°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average moisture. Pale lilac-blue flowers open from late spring into early to mid summer. The plant reaches 12 to 15 inches tall and 12 to 15 inches wide. That compact size lets it tuck into a casual planting without crowding its neighbors.
Pairs well with Hardy geranium, Fountain grass, and Ornamental onion.
