Campanula persicifolia ‘Moerheimii’
Peachleaf Bellflower |
USDA Zone: 2-9 |
Plant number: 1.110.310
Bellflowers are among the most popular of perennials. This selection has been grown for centuries in cottage gardens, and is still an excellent choice for the border, or in mixed containers. Plants form a low mound of dark green leaves, bearing tall stems of large, frilly double white bells during the summer months. Remove spent blooms to encourage more buds to form. Great for cutting. Easily divided in either spring or fall. An easy perennial for most sunny sites, this is a good selection for the beginning gardener, particularly.
