Hi!



Anyone know what these are? They were a hand-me-around from a former acquaintance.

are pictured a little past peak. The main flower consists of multiples of this small cone. These are secondary blooms along the stem. Unfortunately, we had heavy rain when they were in full bloom.

Looks like Creeping Bellflower (Campanula rapunculoides) or some other Campanula. They are usually invasive. HTH

Hmmm. Possibly. It looks a little like the picture at Wikipedia for Clustered Bellflower (Campanula glomerata), but its hard to tell. So far, a Google search hasn't produced a picture I can positively identify as being the same flower.

Thanks!

Thank you for suggesting it was a form of campanula. It is indeed Clustered Bellflower (campanula glomerata).

Glad you made a positive ID. Check out Paghat's site. She has pics and info on 20 different campanulas, three of which are glomerata.
