Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Easily grown in average, moderately moist well drained soil in a sunny spot (part shade in hot climates); this perennial has upright stems 1-2’ tall topped with 1 ½” lavender bell shaped flowers in upward facing clusters late spring to early summer. Deadhead to extend bloom season. Spreads by rhizomes, especially in loose, moist soils. Deer resistant. USDA Z3 3” pot  
This campanula (little bell in Latin) has soft lavender to amethyst-pink flowers with a dark purple eye. The flowers fade to a pale pink, almost white, for a two-toned display. Bloom begins in May and continues into June. 16" tall and spreading to form an opulent colony. Well-drained soil is preferred. Minimum temperature: -40 °F
Featured in lovely rounded heads, showy pastel-hued flowers surmount stocky upright stems loosely attired with small sessile leaves. Each long lasting cluster houses up to 15 small blooms, described by deep mauve tips, aged pale blushed petals and newer more saturated amethyst pink ones for a distinctive two-toned effect. Large long-petioled foliage
Very unusual flowers; pale mauve pink, increasing in color toward the tips, arranged in a ball-like cluster.
