Tussock Bellflower [ Campanula Carpatica ] is native to the Carpathian Mountains. The leaves are small, tough, pointed, with saw-tooth edges, having the shape of feathers, hence the secondary common name Tussock, which means feathery or tufted. The plant is excellent as a groundcover in the mixed perennial border. It is a floriferous groundcover growing 6–12 inches tall with a compact habit. Grows well in full sun to light shade

Tussock Bellflower [ Campanula Carpatica ] has from white to violet bowl-shaped flowers and grows into a mat. The plant is densely covered by the compact mounds of white, blue, or violet flowers. Its flowers last a very long while, in continuous bloom from June to August or first frost, though at their primary intensity for July. Trimming out spent blooms maximizes its beauty and assists continuous re-bloom. This very long blooming plant looks great in rock gardens or used in the front of the border.

The plant attracts hummingbirds.

The plant is deer resistant.
