Author Message   Patsy  My Weather Posted on Wednesday, June 30, 2004 - 10:46 pm EST :    I didn't plant this but now I have it popping up everywhere. I pull out most of it but leave a few clumps in strategic spots because I do like the pretty bell-like flowers. Pat Ontario Zone 6   Kniphofia  My Favorite Photo My Weather My Garden Posted on Thursday, July 01, 2004 - 06:19 am EST :    That's an absolute beauty! I love the shape of the flowers and the color too. I'm surprised that its not the pink one in the background thats the invasive one - I've known that one to be a real thug! Lovely photo Pat! Sue Central Maine Zone 4   Patsy  My Weather Posted on Thursday, July 01, 2004 - 07:51 am EST :    Thank you Sue. Yes, they are both invasive and are fighting it out for room to grow, I guess. Pat Ontario Zone 6   Lulubelle  My Weather Posted on Thursday, July 01, 2004 - 08:20 am EST :    I have those too Patsy, and keep yanking them out from where I do not want them to grow. They really are invasive! Lulubelle, zone 5, Quebec, Canada   Galanthophile  Posted on Thursday, July 01, 2004 - 04:23 pm EST :    Both are lovely and worth keeping (if under control).

I have some of all types! Galanthophile - Ann (Northern England), Zone "8"   Larchri  My Garden Journal My Garden Posted on Thursday, June 28, 2007 - 03:35 am EST :    Your blue Campanula must be C.rapunculoides. It is a common weed in my garden too. Like yourself I appreciate the gracious 'romantic' look of the flowers, but have to dig out their groundcovering colonies from my borders.
