(pronounced 'skook-zer-i) This species of bellflower grows as a low, clump of leaves with flower stems of six to ten inches. A plant will grow to twelve inches wide. The purplish blue flowers have a bell shape. It is of a height that could be used in a rock garden or towards the front of a mixed flower garden. Not particular to soil, although it would like to be kept moist through summer. And prefers full sun. As a guess, hardy to USDA Zone 4. |
