  • Description

  • Notes

Don't let this perennial's delicate appearance fool you; Bluebell-of-Scotland is one tough little flower. Foliage is a soft green, and creeps and trails in a ground-hugging mat; flowers stand on erect, wiry stems maybe about 12 inches high. Violet blue and bell-shaped blooms appear in mid to late summer. Enjoyed by native bees and bumblebees. Use along a pathway, in a parkstrip, or to edge a perennial or shrub border. It has a charming habit of weaving in and around larger perennials and shrubs.
