Sorry it's anonymous, Bb! Do you know how to propagate perennial Campanulas?

Oh, and did you see the Symphyandra I posted? That's fine and thriving in the shade. :-)

Is it by division of clumps Spritz? Have successfully divided a few varieties but actually need to get some new ones for shady border.Looking out for Symphyandra too !

It's not a very big clump, Bb - only a few stems!

Wil be off on the hunt for some new ones at the weekend..so says Jane! Women !

Could be latiloba Amethyst, Spritz? Hard to see much detail - what are the leaves like?

Thanks - I'll check it out.....hold on.... Puff, puff.

The leaves are alternate up the stem, slightly toothed, up to 2" long, palish green and slightly rough and the stems are about 2' long.

Bb - I wish I could split it for you - but I think I'd kill it!

Have a look at

This site calls it Campanula latiloba Hidcote Amethyst - does that ring any bells?

Wagger, i've just discovered that company, received my delivery on Monday just gone.
I will definately use them again.

This pale blue one is very pretty.

No, Wagger - definitely not. The bells on mine don't open flat. Good try - thanks!

Yes, Tt - I like it too. It's understated and quite elegant!
