Carpathian Bellflower 'Foerster', Tussock Bellflower 'Foerster', Carpathian Harebell 'Foerster'
Campanula carpatica var turbinata ‘Foerster’ (Carpathian Bellflower) is a low-growing perennial forming a neat mound of toothed and rounded bright green leaves. In early summer, large, clear blue, open flowers are borne on short stalks just above the foliage. They are produced in such quantities that they nearly cover the entire plant. This plant will continue blooming for weeks, until early fall, if spent blossoms are regularly deadheaded. This charming Carpathian Bellflower is perfect for rock gardens, at the front of perennial borders, or massed as a groundcover.
