Campanula Blue Clips

Campanula Blue Clips

A compact, long-blooming bellflower valued for its deep blue, upward-facing flowers, tidy clumping habit, and excellent border performance. Large, starry bell-shaped blooms appear in late spring and continue into early summer, with repeat flowering encouraged by deadheading.

Growth is dense and uniform, forming a neat mound that holds its shape well without spreading aggressively.
