The large, 3" light lavender-blue flowers on 3' stalks give the effect of a cloud of translucent bells, suspended from wiry stems. Campanula persicifolia 'Telham Beauty' mixes with Astilbes and Digitalis of every shade.
Campanula is a fine group of garden plants ranging from very dwarf to 6' tall that look superb in the perennial border. Some bloom for the better part of summer. They need only a moderately rich, well-drained soil and full sun or partial shade. Campanulas are not well suited to the desert Southwest.
