Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Gracing American gardens since the 1800s, this rarely offered, endangered Campanula fashions an attractive gray-green rosette of crinkled, arrow-shaped leaves, each with a rounded base, a somewhat fuzzy surface and long petioles. The dainty floriferous display of soft blue, flared bells borne on one-sided, upright racemes belies its rugged character. A sun tolerant, clumping perennial, Campanula sarmatica's quiet charm can be admired along a border's edge or atop a wall accompanying Diascia 'Coral Canyon'.
A tough little Campanula which is to be found only in a few specialty nurseries. We're special alright. This makes a rosette of felty wavy-edged gray-green leaves which are the base supporting the nearly 20" stem of soft blue flared flowers. Great for the rock garden.
