Campanula rotundifolia

Description

Campanula rotundifolia is a widespread American wildflower that ranges from Canada to the Gulf of Mexico. Because of its wide distribution, it is a food source for many insects. It has an early summer bloom of pale lavender-blue, bell-shaped flowers. This perennial will benefit from growing in a deeper soil profile, or in mounded green roof media, and may need some watering to survive on a roof, in most areas. We recommend planning for regular maintenance when using this plant on green roofs.

Large quantities may require custom growing. Please contact office for lead times.
