There are approximately 1500 species of annual
and perennial Campanulas, including some of the best of the garden
perennials. Most are of fairly easy culture, preferring a moderately
rich, well-drained soil in full sun or partial shade. Poor winter
drainage can result in crown rot. Keep watered in the summer and
fertilize regularly. |

Campanula 'Sarastro' is from the
European nursery of the same name. This is a Campanula punctata hybrid
with large, very dark purple bellflowers, in size and shape like the
popular cultivar Campanula 'Kent Belle' ... but with the very important
difference that the flower stems are sturdy and compact, so no staking
is required. The very best of this group of Campanulas. |

Campanula punctata ‘Wedding Bells’
is very different with double form, hose in hose blooms, pure
white. |

We aren’t sure of the ancestry of
Campanula
‘Hot Lips’, but it sure looks an itty bitty form of Campanula
punctata. It has the same spreading habit and the white, flushed pink
flowers are the same pendant bells, only everything is much smaller. |
