Arctic Harebell

Overview

Arctic Harebell (Campanula uniflora) is a low-growing perennial plant native to Northern England, Scotland, and Norway. It has bright blue bell-shaped flowers which appear in late summer and early autumn. Its slow growth habit means it is often not seen until August, when the flowers stand out against the rocky terrain. The evergreen foliage is grey-green in colour, and thick enough to prevent weeds from taking over. It is very tolerant of cold, wet conditions, so it is an excellent choice for rock gardens in colder areas. It attracts bees and can be used as groundcover in shaded locations.
