American Bellflower - Campanulastrum americanum

Star shaped blue/violet blossoms light up a moist garden, and may draw in long-tongued bees and bumblebees. In part-sun, the stalks are taller and begin blooming in July. This perennial wants a moist to wet garden to be happy. Great next to hedge lines and under locust trees with more dappled shade.
