The Plant store is now closed for orders.

  • I'm planning on one last round of sales toward the end of September of plants that I'll be potting up from a nursery bed I planted in the fall of 2022. I'll post the details and the time once I have the plants ready to go
  • Please see the Using the Plant Library  page  for some tips on how to make the most of the information here to select species for creating a healthy native plant community suited to the conditions of your site.

~Pretty much gone for 2023, a couple might be included in the fall sale starting on August 30th~

Campanula rotundifolia

Giesecke's Bellflower

  • Average to dry soils -Happy in rock niches, especially limestone
  • Full sun to light shade
  • 12” tall, 6” to 8” spread
  • Early summer blooming, with sporadic reblooming
  • Native to Ontario, beginner friendly, open meadow and rock garden settings

New to me this year, grown from seeds from Prairie Moon Nursery https://www.prairiemoon.com/campanula-rotundifolia-harebell-prairie-moon-nursery.html 

After many botanical name iterations, these are once again officially Campanula rotundifolia according to VASCAN and are considered to be native throughout Canada.

These lovely, apparently delicate, plants don’t handle competition for space well, but can thrive in rock niches and garden areas where they aren’t overwhelmed by more rambunctious neighbours.

Please check out the Prairie Moon listing at the link above for more details.

While it rarely comes up, I do reserve the right to limit plant quantities, mostly to help ensure that as many native plant gardens as possible become a reality
