Name That Plant!

Need ID for long flowering perennial

7 years ago

Medium purple flowers (about half an inch diameter) on 6-12 inch stems. Leaves alternate and the newer leaves have some purple blotches (not that evident here). Has been flowering constantly since spring. Tried to find it in Newcomb's Wildflower Guide but doesn't seem to be in there (3 regular parts).

Carol, you're dead on! It's Phlomis russeliana. I knew when they sprouted that they sure weren't artichokes! Thank you very much. Sue

Campanula latiloba is practically identical to C.persicifolia. Main difference in cultivation is that C.persicifolia is subject to rust, and C.latiloba is not.
