Bellflowers are mostly perennial herbaceous plants. They usually bloom blue to purple, but there are also white-flowering ones. Depending on the variety, the suitable growing conditions are very different. Some require almost swampy areas, others are classified as rock garden perennials. Some varieties are used as leafy vegetables, and some flowers not only look good in a vase but also, for example, candied on a plate. Others are said to be beneficial for colds.
