Common name peach-leaf bellflower Family campanulaceae Life cycle perennial Flowers blue, white (June) Size 2' Light sun-part shade From seed germinate at room temperature, do not exclude light detailed seed-starting info below Seed ripens mid-August Upright plantstalks covered in large bellflowers in late spring. The common and botanical names derived from the long narrow leaves. We've had the normal blue variety for many years now - they self-seed, sometimes enough to give quite a show in early June. More recently, I traded for seed of 'Alba', and got to see the results this year. No surprises, really - just a bright white equivalent.

In our garden, this plant grows in the following areas: front perennial border, side garden, back yard island

Seed for this plant is included on my seed trade list
