Grand Bellflower
From LoveToKnow Garden
Grand Bellflower (Adenophora) - Hardy perennials of the Bellflower family, 18 inches to over 3 feet high. They are mostly from Siberia and Dahuria, with flowers generally blue in color. Some of the most distinct species are A. coronopifolia, A. denticulata, A. Lamarckii, A. liliiflora, A. polymorpha, A. stylosa, and A. megalantha. In these occur slight variations in color and size of flower. Their thick fleshy roots thrive in a rich loam, and like a damp subsoil; impatient of removal, and should not be increased by division. Seed freely, and are easily increased. In The Garden, 23rd August 1919, Sir Herbert Maxwell praises this plant as doing well in Scotland.
