Campanula 'blue rose' is a pretty little plant..... ground hugging like the species portenschlagiana....... the difference is the flowers are a violet blue to medium or light blue and very double..... looking like a rose...... This is its first year so we'll see how it overwinters.......
Update: overwintered well.... growing by leaps and bounds.... waiting for it to flower. :)
