Description

Campanula latifolia var. macrantha is a hardy perennial for heavy soil, with intensely blue-violet bell-shaped flowers.

Campanula latifolia var. macrantha forms bushy, robust, semi-running clumps. In late spring, it bears numerous bell-shaped, intensely blue-violet flowers for over a month. Its elongated, triangular-shaped leaves are deciduous.

This very hardy species grows in shade as well as in the sun, it likes rich and moist soil and tolerates heavy and clayey soils.
