Hello Jeanne,
I have grown of my favorite Campanulas for some years now... just so
happens it is a glomerata. name is Joan Elliot and it has the deepest of
rich royal purple. Stays in a large leafy crown until the stems come up to
produce those lovely clusters of flowers. Any help? Sorry, no web site and
I do not sell the plant so no photos on line.
