Campanula zangezura
 

Habitat: stony places

Flowering: summer

Height: 20 cm

Width: 25 cm

Soil: gritty, well drained

Symphyandras are just like Campanulas, separated on a botanical technicality, but just as good. (The stamens are joined together, to make a tube that surrounds the style.) There are tall ones and small ones, mostly liking gritty, well-drained sites in full sun. Some will grow on dry walls. Symphyandra zangezura is particularly effective for us grown in this way.

Campanula zangezura has lobed leaves and violet blue flowers, over a very long period. Perennial.
