BENEFITS
Lovely cascading habit and reasonably drought tolerant.
Although some members of this genus have upright
stems and flowers, 'Blue Waterfall' belongs to a
group of Bellflowers or Campanulas that are low,
mat-forming creepers. 'Blue Waterfall' is aptly named
since a profusion of blue flowers flows from the
center of the plant.
BLOOM SEASON & HABIT
Low mounds of light green foliage covered with dark
blue bell-shaped flowers in summer with some repeat
bloom in fall. Low-growing, vigorous spreading
habit.
LOCATION
Full sun to partial shade. USDA Hardiness Zones 4
to 7; AHS Heat Zones 7 to 4. See our Growing
Zones page to reference growing zones in your
area.
USE
Plant in front of borders or island beds. Excellent
specimen plant for rock garden walls, patio container,
window boxes or hanging baskets. Combines nicely
under other perennials like Chamomile (Anthemis),
Coreopsis (try Coreopsis 'Golden Gain'), Helen's
Flower (try Helenium 'Coppelia') and Black-Eyed
Susan (try Rudbeckia 'Viette's Little Suzy').
SIZE
8" to 10" tall by 24" wide. Use 4
plants per square yard
CULTURE
Prefers average well-drained soils. Plants can spread
rapidly, so place plants where they can be allowed
to grow. Reasonably drought tolerant once established.
Divide plants in spring or fall every two to three
years. Also
