Campanula ‘Emerald’

Common Name:
Campanula ‘Emerald’

Description:
Campanula ‘Emerald’ is a charming and compact variety of bellflower, prized for its mounding habit and dense carpet of delicate, starry flowers. Typically forming a low-growing mat of soft green foliage, this variety produces masses of small lavender-blue to violet flowers that bloom profusely through the warmer months. Ideal as a ground cover or edging plant, Campanula ‘Emerald’ performs well in rockeries, between pavers, or spilling over pots and retaining walls. It thrives in well-drained soils with regular moisture, preferring a position in full sun to part shade. In Melbourne’s climate, it flowers reliably in spring and summer, and benefits from a light trim after flowering to encourage repeat blooming. This variety is a great option for softening borders and bringing cool-toned contrast to warm-coloured plantings, while also attracting pollinators such as bees.
