All types of bells are in good quality. Perennial bells: planting and care, types and varieties with photos

Bluebells are popularly considered garden flowers, with the only exception being the Campanula equifolia, which is widespread in culture indoor plants, the main representatives of which are the popular varieties Mayi and Alba with white and bluish flowers, which are popularly referred to as the bride and groom.

But recently, compact and low-growing bells, which are intended for growing in open ground, are beginning to gain positions in indoor floriculture. The champions among these plants are the terry variety of bells.

Varieties and types of bells

It grows on the edges of bushes or on slopes. It is a perennial with a spindle-like root system and a straight or slightly branched stem. The leaves are ovoid, pointed, rough and pubescent underneath.

Depending on weather conditions, the bell grows up to one and a half meters. The flowers are not large, light blue in color, solitary or collected in groups in the axils of the leaves, creating racemose inflorescences.

Forms buds in June, the flowering period occurs from July to early August. Flowering lasts about two weeks, some plants continue their flowering period due to lateral stems. The number of flowers is very large, up to about a hundred, and sometimes more.

The seeds are collected in August. The bell flower reproduces very well by self-sowing. If you want to plant these flowers in your garden, you should sow the seeds before winter. This species is very dry-resistant. I have it growing on a rocky hill.

It is also a resident of forests, bushes and slopes. The flowers are solitary or collected in groups of two or four in the axil of the leaves, creating racemose inflorescences. The height of the plant does not exceed one meter. Flowering occurs a little earlier than Bolognese, but the flowering period is longer.

In favorable conditions, re-blooming is possible. The seeds ripen in August. The boxes are collected before drying. These bells in the garden are not picky about the soil, but love wetter and quieter places. They look very good near bodies of water.

Distributed in pine forests, on slopes among bushes. The height of the stem is from ten to fifty centimeters. The flowers are solitary or placed in groups of two or three on the tops of spacious stems.

These garden bells begin the growing season earlier than other species; the flowering period occurs in June. Flowering lasts throughout the summer. The boxes need to be collected several times, because the presence of ripe fruits stops the flowering period of the plant.

It is better to sow the seeds of round-leaved bells in winter. Try scattering the seeds randomly and the plantings will surprise you with thick, spreading and thin stems that will form a green feather bed, equipped with small leaves and exquisite flowers.

It grows in forests, but the most favorite habitats are forest onions. It is possible to find them on poor soils of pine forests, but they do not create clumps here, but grow singly with two or three flowers on weak stems. And in the groves, next to the mighty oaks, the bells are especially luxurious.

They awaken later than other species, but their flowering period begins earlier. At the end of June, the seeds are already ripening, which can be easily poured out through the holes located in the upper part of the fruit. This species gives very good self-seeding. Flowering occurs in the second year. They differ from other species in the size of their flowers and drought resistance.

This perennial plant has a straight, simple stem with a milky sap. The leaves are bare, toothed, and the basal leaves are elongated, sessile. The flowers are large, single or collected in racemes, blue and sometimes white.

Loves forests, bushes and slopes, limestone outcrops, as well as wastelands and roadsides. This perennial with a thick branched stem up to a meter high. The entire plant is covered with rough short hairs. The basal and lower stem leaves are located on long petioles, heart-shaped-ovate, the upper lanceolate, serrated. Forms up to ten flowers on short stalks in a violet racemose inflorescence. Calyxes are hairy with curved teeth. The corolla is larger than the calyx, funnel-shaped.

In the garden, the height of this plant can reach two meters; the inflorescence can contain up to one hundred and fifty flowers. The bell plant grows at the end of March and blooms in June–July. It can be propagated by dividing the bush or by seeds. The seeds ripen in July August.

It is better to sow in winter. The plant self-sows. The seeds have a high germination rate, but require a period of rest. In the first year, a rosette with several leaves and a taproot appears. The next year, a stem and creeping underground shoots appear from this rosette, which give rise to new plants. Vegetative propagation continues from year to year, and over time the bells cover a very large area.

It grows in forests, on the edges, and lives well on dry onions. A perennial plant with a thick, almost tree-like rhizome and a straight, simple stem, often reddish and pubescent. The upper leaves are narrow, and the lower ones are ovate-elongated. Dark purple flowers collected in the inflorescence of the head in the axil of the upper leaves. The height of the plant is twenty-fifty centimeters, sometimes higher. They appear in early spring, flowering occurs in June, and the seeds ripen in August.

The crowded bell loves dry places, they look very beautiful in groups. Young basal leaves contain milky juice; they are used together with sauerkraut for making soups. An infusion of leaves is used in folk medicine for sore throats and in the form of lotions for skin diseases. A good honey plant.

An unpretentious perennial. These are the most decorative bells. The flowers are large, light purple, collected in inflorescences. The height of the plant is from seventy to one hundred and fifty centimeters.

Flowering occurs in the second year. It begins to grow in early April. The budding phase occurs from the beginning of June, and at the end of the same month the flowering period begins. The stems are straight. The flowers are bell-shaped, which are located in the axils of the upper leaves and collected in a densely spike-shaped cluster.

Flowering occurs until the end of July. The seeds ripen in September. Autumn sowings produce good seedlings in the spring. Blooms thickly in open sunny places. It is better to use sandy and loamy soil.

Perennial root-like plant. Very decorative, with large blue flowers, which can be found in gardeners’ flower beds, and white ones, which look like glasses, with a pyramidal inflorescence. The flowers are solitary, located at the top of the flower stalks. The heart-shaped leaves are mainly basal, the stems reach a height of up to forty centimeters.

Propagated by seeds, which are scattered on the surface of the soil and lightly compacted. Entire clumps are formed on dry soils. Loves sunny areas with fertile, well-drained soil. Used in landscaping flower beds and border design. These bells look good in rock gardens and on rocky hills, in any composition. It creates a particularly amazing contrast of shape and color with poppies.

The plant is biennial. Perhaps there is not a single flower lover who would not be delighted by the beauty of these amazingly beautiful flowers, collected in pyramidal inflorescences. Very decorative plants with colorful flowers.

Growing does not require much effort. They are planted in mixborders, in groups in flower beds and in mixed plantings. The ridges will be decorated with their delicate flowers. Since these flowers have tall, spreading stems, they are best planted in an area protected from the wind.

General information about house bells

Home plants already include varieties of Carpathian bellflower, such as Thorpedo with purple flowers, as well as its white-flowered variety Alba. And recently, the analogy of a bride and groom with densely double pink flowers has appeared on the flower market.

These new items are represented by the blue and white form of the hybrid bell, obtained by crossing the bells of the spoon-leaved and Carpathian bells, which are known as dwarf ground cover plants intended for open ground.

A reservation should be made regarding the compactness of the bells. Since almost all plants that go on sale in flower shops are treated with retardants, these are substances that slow down plant growth. As a result, the plants have the appearance of a fairly thick and dense turf, while forming their shoots with shortened internodes, and flowering occurs in a cap. At the end of the effect of the drug, the plant returns to its natural growth form, after which it becomes looser.

In my opinion, there is nothing wrong with this. Since the bride and groom grow, even without chemical treatment, like hanging plants. Terry bells have approximately the same appearance, which look very beautiful in hanging flowerpots. Flowering occurs very abundantly. And individual flowers last for about five to seven days, but if you take into account the entire flowering period as a whole, it lasts quite a long time, which occurs from June to August.

It is advisable to remove wilted flowers, as well as shoots that have already completed their flowering period. This simple technique gives the plant an incentive to form new buds, and also helps to prolong the flowering period.

Carpathian bell planting and care at home

When cultivated, the requirements of terry varieties are approximately the same as those of the bellflower. You need to choose a fairly bright place with enough brightness, but at the same time diffused sunlight. This variety tolerates only light shading; with a lack of lighting, the shoots of the bells are stretched, and the flowering of the plant is greatly deteriorated or stops altogether.

Plants should be watered regularly to maintain soil moisture and there should be good drainage. Even if the earthen clod dries out for a short time, the buds may dry out. Excessive moisture is also not advisable, as it often causes root rot. Also, terry bells do not tolerate very dry air, which causes the leaves to dry out at the edges.

Feeding Carpathian bellflower

The plant needs regular fertilizing with organic and mineral fertilizers for abundant flowering, which should be done every couple of weeks.

An important condition for these plants, in indoor conditions, is wintering with cool conditions at a sufficiently high level of lighting. A glazed loggia with a low, but still positive temperature is optimal.

Carpathian bell propagation by cuttings

If the bell has become elongated during the winter, then in the spring it can be cut very short. All cut stems can be used for cuttings. The plant is quite resistant to diseases and pests.

The interspecific hybrid of the bell is sterile, and for this reason cannot form seeds, so the plant is propagated only by vegetative means. The optimal time for this is spring. New plants can most easily be obtained by dividing a bush into several parts, or from stem cuttings with three to four internodes.

It should be taken into account that damaged bell tissue secretes milky juice; for this reason, the cuttings are first placed in water to release the juice, and only after that they are planted in a moist substrate consisting of sand and peat, perlite or vermiculite.

To create greenhouse conditions with high humidity, you can cover the cuttings with a plastic bag, after which they must be placed in a bright place, but without direct sunlight. Rooting will occur over a period of several weeks.

Tall perennial bluebells in the garden

Perennial garden bells (lat. Campanula) have a simple flower shape, not overloaded with complex combinations of petals and stamens. They are popular among gardeners due to their bright and long-lasting blooms. Bells resemble church bells, which is where they got their name; they are also popularly called flowers of faith and hope.

Types of bells and their names

There are approximately 300 species of bells in the world. Let's look at the most popular varieties among gardeners.

Broadleaf bell (lat. Campanula latifolia)

One of the tallest types of bells, the stems of which reach one and a half meters in height. Large serrate leaves are unevenly distributed along the stems; in their axils there are clusters of blue, white or purple bells up to 6 cm long.

Prefers moist soils and partial shade and is found in the wild. Transplantation of an adult plant does not tolerate well. In gardens you can find double forms of the flower. The most common varieties in Russia are Alba and Bruntwood.

Campanula lactiflora (lat. Campanula lactiflora)

A tall plant (up to 150 cm), found in the mountains of the Caucasus and Asia. The stem is powerful, highly branched in its upper part. The flowers are white or purple, 3-4 cm in diameter, collected in large inflorescences.

Prefers sunny places and reproduces by sowing seeds. The most popular varieties are Coerulea and Loddon Anne.

Nettle-leaved bell (lat. Campanula trachelium)

The stem is reddish in color, up to one meter high, and covered with hairs. Single flowers of white, blue or purple are located in the axils of the upper leaves on short stalks.

The plant prefers shady, damp soils of forests and ravines. The variety is undemanding to soil composition, winter-hardy, and moisture-loving. Does not tolerate transplantation, but easily propagates by self-sowing.

Carpathian bellflower (lat. Campanula carpatica)

It got its name from the mountains, at the foot of which it is often found in nature. Plant height 30-35 cm; branching, herbaceous stems and large, up to 5cm flowers distinguish this species.

The easiest way to propagate the Carpathian bell is by growing from seeds, but you can also use cuttings and dividing the bush. The most popular variety is White Star.

Pointed bell (lat. Campanula punctata)

(6. Bell dotted Elizabeth)

In our country it occurs naturally on the banks of forest rivers in the Far East. Compact, branching plant up to 50 cm tall with large (5-6 cm) white, blue, lilac flowers. The corolla of the flower is pubescent, covered with burgundy dots.

The dotted bell, planting and caring for which does not require much effort, is perfect for alpine slides and flower beds in a natural style.

Choosing a location and planting bells

Perennial bells can become a real decoration for a garden in a landscape style; the varieties, photos and descriptions of which are presented in our material are the most suitable for growing in Russia - unpretentious and do not require special care. Let's take a closer look at their planting in open ground seed and seedling methods.

Choosing a planting site and soil

Numerous bellflower species are similar in their soil preferences: loose, well-drained areas with light partial shade. In open sun, flowering will be short-lived. Plants do not tolerate stagnant moisture well, so wetlands are not suitable for them.

Propagation of bells by seeds

Bluebells reproduce well by seeds, but wild species should be limited due to active self-seeding. Bell seeds are planted in October in soil dug to a depth of 30-40 cm and cleared of weeds.

In heavy loamy soils, it is advisable to add sand, peat and compost. The distance between the seedlings is maintained at 2 cm, without deepening them, but only lightly sprinkling them with earth. With this method, the seeds germinate three weeks after the snow melts. After 2-3 months, the plants are transplanted to a permanent place.

Bells can be propagated seedling method, sowing them in boxes in March. They are covered with glass or polyethylene on top, periodically ventilating and spraying the shoots with a spray bottle. After a couple of weeks, the shelter can be removed and the seedlings can be planted. At the beginning of June, you can plant seedlings in flower beds.

Reproduction of bells by root division

Propagation of bells by dividing the root is usually carried out in August, after the above-ground part of the plant is cut off after flowering. The bush is dug up, the rhizome is cut into pieces with a shovel and the plots are planted in a permanent place, at a distance of at least 50 cm from each other.

Caring for perennial bells

Watering bells should be done as the soil dries; in rainy weather it is not carried out at all to avoid moisture stagnation.

Feeding perennial bells

Bluebells do not require complex fertilization schedules; It is enough to feed them with nitrogen fertilizers in April, and before flowering (in mid-July) add complex mineral fertilizers. Nitrophoska works well at a rate of 70 grams per 1 sq. m ridges. After flowering, you can replenish the soil with superphosphate.

Garter and trimming

Tall types of bells need a garter or supports, since abundant flowering and green mass contribute to plant lodging. During flowering, it is advisable to remove old peduncles if there is no need to collect seeds.

Cleaning the inflorescences will save the plant’s strength and extend the overall flowering period. After the bells fade, the bush loses decorative look and it is completely cut off. During the cold season, in regions with particularly harsh winters, the bells are covered with spruce branches; in its absence, the pruned bush is sprinkled with compost.

Bottom line

Bells go well with lush garden plants and rarely act as the main crops in flower beds. They are used to fill space, they are indispensable companions in creating decorations and highlighting design elements of the garden and paths. The main feature of bells is their abundant flowering and ease of propagation with virtually no care.

Bluebells are one of the most versatile flowers for the garden. They have many varieties, and winter hardiness is excellent. I consider them universal because there is no garden where a curtain of bells would not come in handy. They are unpretentious to soils and easy to care for. And with them you can create an endless number of design options for flower beds, flower beds and borders in the garden.

Planting a bluebell

As a rule, planting material is purchased during flowering. Therefore, when planting, all flowers of bells need to be trimmed. If the bells are planted on hot days, they are watered every other day and shaded.

It is better to choose a place for planting low-growing bells in the sun, otherwise the bushes will be loose and elongated. It is better to place other types of bells in partial shade.

Soil for planting bells

Bells are undemanding to soil composition. In my garden, I mix regular soil with coarse sand and add bone meal.
Any soil with the addition of fine gravel is suitable for bells - rocky soil.
They do not like too fertile soil; on them, plants grow an impressive mass of leaves, and then die off after the first winter.
Acidity is not important for bluebells. They work a little better on peat bogs.
They cannot tolerate stagnant water. When planting bells in areas where water stagnates, drainage is necessary.

Planting dates for bluebells

It is better to plant bells in spring, in the first half of summer or at the end of summer. It is important to have time to plant before the end of the first ten days of September.

Caring for bluebells

Bluebells are easy to care for. In my garden, I don’t feed the bells, I just weed them in a timely manner and add soil around the bush in the spring.

On dry days they need moderate watering.
Species such as Carpathian bell and Pozharsky bell need pruning. After flowering, the bushes are shortened by half.
It happens that bells disappear after particularly harsh winters. To avoid this, plants need to be divided and replanted approximately every 3-4 years. Then the center of the bush will not be exposed and the plant will not freeze.
Bluebells are best propagated by seeds. The plant has a taproot and does not tolerate transplantation very well.

Types and varieties of bells

Today there are about 300 types of bells. All of them grow in the northern hemisphere, so they are excellent for growing in the Moscow region. Most types and varieties of bells can withstand all the surprises of winter.

There are tall bells, and there are very small ones - no higher than 10 cm.
Perennial and biennial species are known.
The color of the flowers ranges from snow-white, pink, soft blue to rich blue or even purple.

In short, bells can please the most demanding gardener.

However, not all varieties are suitable for growing in harsh conditions. climatic zones. The following types of bellflowers do not overwinter in my garden in the northern Moscow region:

Gargan bell,
crowded bell,
saxifrag bell,
cushion-shaped bell,
alpine bell.

Tall bluebells

Some tall bluebells grow up to 1.5 m tall. The tallest are varieties with simple flowers. For example, the peach-leaved bell with blue flowers and the broad-leaved Alba bell with white flowers. The tallest growth is the Campanula lactiflora.

In my garden, the most resistant variety was Cerulea with pale blue flowers. There is a variety called Alba with white inflorescences and Loddon Anna with soft pink ones.

Campanula latifolia

Grows up to 1 m tall.
It overwinters well and grows quickly.
Propagates by self-sowing.
Loves moist soils.

Looks impressive in group plantings. Interesting are its elongated flowers, white in the Alba variety and purple in the Makranta variety.

Bellflower peach

Got its name from the similarity of the leaves to peach foliage
The plant is distinguished by wide-open flowers that are raised upward.
All terry varieties of the group reach a height of about 40 cm.

An interesting variety is Flore Pleno with double lilac flowers, La Belle with double pale blue inflorescences and Snow White with double white bells.

Campanula nettlefolia

It is distinguished by small flowers, but abundant flowering.
The plant's foliage dies off at the end of June, so you need to remember the planting location so as not to accidentally damage the bell.

Its variety “Bernice” with double dark blue flowers is interesting.

Campanula lactiflora

The tallest of the group.
Characterized by long-lasting (up to 1 month) flowering.
The plant can reach 1.5 – 1.8 m.

From approximately the middle of the height of the stem at the time of budding, additional shoots with buds emerge, so that during flowering even one bell bush looks like an air cloud.

Medium-sized bluebells

The Rubra variety is interesting. It has the darkest, almost purple, flowers.
An attractive variety is “Pantalons” with a dark pink color of the outer petals and a white stripe along each petal; the height of the plants is about half a meter.
Bellflower dotted and Campanula Takeshima have been popular with gardeners in recent years. They have very large flowers that “look” down. However, over time, I abandoned these species in my garden due to excessive aggressiveness.

“Aggressive” bells should be planted separately from other perennials. After a couple of years, the creeping root system will make the bells the only inhabitants in the flowerbed, crowding out the rest of the plants.

Low growing bluebells

Bluebell Carpathian

The most famous low bell.
Reaches about 20 cm in height.
The plants form a neat rosette, the leaves of which are not visible during flowering.

Varieties Alba and White Star have white flowers. The popular variety Isabelle is distinguished by its heavenly-toned flowers. The Yulaumeise variety has blue flowers. The purple color distinguishes the Karpatenkrone variety.

Pozharsky's bell

The most unpretentious of bells.
Withstands even snowless winters.
Propagated by shoots, seeds and division of the bush. The easiest way to propagate is to take cuttings from pruned shoots in the spring.

Known varieties are Frost with white flowers and Stella with large blue flowers.

Bell of Portenschlag

Somewhat similar in inflorescences to the previous species, but the bush is more compact, without creeping shoots.
Presented with blue flowers.
Looks great on alpine slides.

Campanula Spoonfolia

The smallest one.
Possible freezing in harsh winters.

A beautiful variety with double flowers is Powder Poof, with white simple flowers Alba and with blue flowers - Miss Wilmot.

Campanula Platycodon

The incomparable Platycodons also belong to the Bellflower family, although they stand somewhat apart. This is a Japanese bell, its second name is wide bell.

The plants are distinguished by widely spaced petals; they are located almost in a horizontal plane. Veins are clearly visible on each of the petals.
It is interesting to observe Platycodon during the budding period: its buds are inflated, like square envelopes.
It is better to propagate by seeds, because the presence of a single long taproot does not serve the plant well when transplanted.
The plants are not easy to care for: they do not tolerate stagnant water and may fall out in some winters.
There are dwarf and tall varieties up to half a meter in height, with white, pink and blue flowers.

Bells in garden design

Bluebells are such diverse and amazing flowers that you can collect them in your garden for a long time, create an interesting collection and various compositions.

1. Bells indispensable in a natural garden, next to wildflowers or surrounded by gorgeous roses.

2. The combination turns out to be interesting. bell with various grains.

3. Campanula lactiflora can become the center of attention in the garden as a tapeworm or represent the background of a mixborder.

4. Pozharsky's bell will become indispensable near a pond, and various varieties of low-growing bells will refresh a rock garden or alpine hill.

5. Good medium height or short bells There will also be miniature conifers in the garden.

6. Bluebell Carpathian , for example, you can plant them along the border of any flower garden.

Perennial flowers, bells, are grown everywhere as garden and country decoration. They are valued for their availability, frost resistance, and variety of varieties. There are about 300 types of bells. Cultivated garden forms are slightly finicky to care for, but with due attention they can decorate the area for many years. The material contains photos and descriptions of the most popular varieties among domestic gardeners.

The garden variety of perennial bellflower or campanula has been cultivated by humans for hundreds of years. The name of the plant and its entire family was given by the shape of the corolla, reminiscent of a miniature bell. In Rus', the flower was also given the names chebotka, pichuzhnitsa, chenille or bell. In the wild, bluebells grow both among tall meadow grasses and on rocky surfaces. The first ones are tall, the second ones are short. The generally accepted varietal classification of all perennial bells is based on differences in “growth.”

Unlike wild meadow species, the flowers are colored not only in blue-blue tones. Shades of garden bells: white, purple, crimson, etc. Tone saturation depends on humidity. The higher it is, the lighter the bud.

The stems of the bell are erect, moderately branched, although climbing subspecies are also found. The plant blooms in the second season from the moment of sowing. The buds open abundantly and fade in waves throughout the summer and the first half of autumn. The corollas of the perennial bell are honey-bearing. The flower is planted in spring or autumn. Any moist soil will suit it.

Attention! An abundance of sunlight is not necessary. Campanula fully takes root and develops even in the shade.

Tall flower varieties

nettle leaf bell will grow up to 1 m and is distinguished by straight, highly fleecy stems. The greens look similar to nettles:

lower leaves have long petioles;
all leaf plates have a serrated edge;
the green surface is rough.

nettle-leaved

Blue-violet or white corollas are collected in a brush up to 45 cm in length. The variety blooms for less than a month from the end of June. Seeds are produced en masse. The subspecies actively reproduces by self-seeding.

Attention! Young leaves and roots of the nettle-leaved bell are placed in salads and cabbage soup.

Campanula latifolia- one of the tallest in the family: 1.2 m. It has a leafy straight stem and large basal leaves. The buds (about 6 cm in length) are located in the axils of the upper sessile leaves. Color - blue, bright blue or white. There are subspecies with double buds. Flowering occurs in mid-summer.

Onion-shaped or rapunzel-shaped bell reaches a height of 1 m if grown under normal conditions. On rocky soil the flower may be much lower. The variety behaves aggressively on the site, quickly multiplies and grows. Practice shows: from a pair of seeds, a vast bellflower meadow grows in 2-3 years. It blooms from June until frost, producing long one-sided racemes. The color of the buds is bright purple.

Onion-shaped

Other varieties in the tall category:

Campanula lactiflora. Grows up to 1.2 m, although it can be lower. Small corollas are collected in pyramids. The color is lilac or white.
The bell is crowded. In addition to being tall (1 m), it has a miniature shape. Multi-tiered inflorescences. The flowers are blue, dark purple or white.
Peach-leaved variety. A 1-meter plant with simple or double buds with a diameter of 3 cm. The color of the inflorescences is blue or white. The leaves are dark and small. Blooms until early autumn. Suitable for cutting.

Medium-sized varieties

Campanula rotundifolia is one of the most popular in its family. It has rounded basal leaves. They dry out and die in the summer, during the flowering phase. The top greens stay fresh until October.

The height of an adult plant reaches 60 cm. There may be several stems. The buds are strictly blue, small, arranged in a paniculate inflorescence.

Other medium-sized varieties of campanula:

Round-leaved

The spreading bell reaches 50-70 cm in height. It has narrow lanceolate leaves of a rich green hue. Large flowers are collected in spreading panicles. Petals are a soft lilac shade.
A perennial variety called Raspberry Ring has single large double buds. The color of the petals is pink. The length of the stem reaches 70 cm. Flowering continues all summer.
Bluebell Droplet is a biennial species. The average height is about 80 cm. The buds are large, up to 6 cm in diameter. They are colored white, blue or purple, located along the entire length of the stem. The flowers open alternately during July and August.

Low-growing Campanula varieties

A special feature of this category of perennial bells is the need for lighting. Plants need plenty of heat and sun. They also need good drainage and rocky soil type. For the winter, the flowers are covered with spruce branches. Low-growing include mountain Pozharsky variety with creeping stems, medium-sized serrated leaves and small flowers of a light blue tone. The bud barely reaches 15 cm in height.

Similar to him Portenschlag bell. The buds play blue-lilac-violet shades. The small, round leaves have a serrated edge. Height - 10-15 cm. Flowering lasts until late autumn, weather permitting.

Other crops in this category:

Campanula punctata differs from its low-growing counterparts in its winter hardiness. Creeping stems rise 20-25 cm above the ground. Inflorescences are sparse. The corollas have a light purple color, unusual for bells, with a dark splash in the center.
The Carpathian variety is one of the longest lasting among dwarf campanulas. It blooms from June to late autumn with delicate blue or white flowers. Height - about 15 cm.
The Gargan bell does not grow higher than 10-15 cm. It forms lush “pillows” on the site. The petals are folded into a star-shaped corolla and have a gray-blue tint.

Campanula is suitable for growing in the garden. The plant is often used to decorate a personal plot. Before planting, you just need to choose the right variety.
