A classic cottage garden plant with large cup shaped flowers on tall and slender stems, ideal for the back of the border. Will grow in partial shade so does will in a mixed border or in a shady area. Earlier flowering than other campanulas and makes an excellent early cut flower.
Goes well with:
Flowers - Echinops ritro 'Veitch's Blue’ (Globe thistle)
Grasses - Stipa gigantea (golden oats)
Care of Campanula Persicifolia Alba
