European bellflower
Campanula rapunculoides
European bellflower is an easy-to-grow perennial producing charming violet-blue bell-shaped flowers through summer; it adapts well to part shade and average garden soils. Water regularly during the growing season and cut back stems after flowering to tidy the plant. Be aware it spreads aggressively via rhizomes, so divide clumps every few years to keep it in check.
