Upward-facing, star-shaped cups are vibrant violet-blue twinkling jewels against bright green foliage. A great container plant with a sturdy upright habit. Remove spent flowers for summer-long color. A low-maintenance, alpine native perfect for novice or advanced gardeners. Bellflowers bloom profusely and will tolerate full sun as long as the soil is not too dry. Leave any new fall foliage at the base to overwinter. Can divide every 3-4 years in the spring or fall. Tolerant of alkaline soils. Zones 5-9. Reaches a height of 14-18″ with an 8-12″ spread.
