Notes
'Deep Blue Clips' tussock bellflower (Campanula carpatica 'Deep Blue Clips') is a perennial for borders, rock gardens, containers, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or chalky soil. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything. It forms a clumping mound that spreads about 12 inches. Bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds visit the blooms.
Pairs well with Green Spice coral bells, Cora Louise peony, and Queen of Night tulip.
