Notes
'Samantha' bellflower (Campanula 'Samantha') is a perennial for borders, containers, and ground cover. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil of most types. It blooms from early to late summer and has fragrant flowers. It spreads 12 to 24 inches, so give it some room. It is not a favorite of rabbits, though hungry rabbits will eat almost anything.
Pairs well with Caramel coral bells, Stella de Oro daylily, and Japanese forest grass.
