Bellflower

(Latin: Campanula)

Bellflowers come in various sizes. If you plant a variety of heights, be sure to plant the larger ones towards the back of your grouping. And after the taller varieties have flowered, it's a good idea to cut them to encourage them to bloom again. With Bellfowers, you also have to watch for slugs.
