This bellflower was huge


This bellflower was huge

I've had this in my garden 4 or 5 years (could even be 6) and it was a huge bush of a plant. Looked lovely with a thousand bells hanging down. Then it gets big, black seed pods and I had to cut them all off so it couldn't drop them all. I knew I couldn't keep it as my space is too small so I yanked it out. But obviously some survived and came back this year. So as long as I can keep it small I'll keep a bit of it.

Glad it stuck with you despite you efferts. A great gift plant it sounds. Always more to give away.

I only know a one person with a really big yard though. No one else wants them because of the same reason, they don't have the room....all city dwellers.

I have a hard time throwing something live aways. I try hard to find homes for everything.
When it was 5 times bigger then this it put on a nice show.

Thanks :)

Campanula takeismana...I was just looking through my notes of plants and this is the name I have written down for this one.
