Serbian Bellflower

Serbian Bellflower
Campanula 'poscharskyana'

Height: 9-12"
Spread: 24"
Care: Plant in well-drained, rich, sandy soil.
           Water well until established.
Location: Full sun, partial shade 
Hardiness: -34C (-30F) Zones 4-9
Type: Perennial 

I invested in two different bellflower plants this year. This is the second. Like the Dwarf Bellfower I am enjoying it very much. Honey bees seem to really love this guy. I have this growing in a pot on my deck along with the other bellflower. It's bloom time is from April to June according to the tag but mine started blooming in June and is still blooming strong. This is a trailing plant so needs room to hang down. Great for rockery garden, tall containers, and hanging baskets.
