?The best and most gratifying bellfl for stone walls? (Jellito), this very adaptable 8-10" slow creeper produces its pretty broad-lobed bells of deep-lavender over much of the season; don?t pamper. S-PSh-Sh/M-D

Violet-Blue, star-shaped flowers cover this wonderfully versatile evergreen groundcover Campanula from Spring thru Summer. Growing up to 1’ high & spreading up to 3’ wide, it forms a dense weed-suppressing mat that is ideal for growing in tight spaces - between pavers, in containers, or even a crack in a wall! It performs best with well-draining soil, average water, & a bit of afternoon shade in hot climates. In areas with regular rainfall, it can easily naturalize & become a no-maintenance plant! Spreads rhizomatically, so look forward to a more impressive display every year.
