Could anybody please let me know if these are campanula? I have loads of this growing in the front garden. They have purple/lilac flowers on them later in the year that are a bit star shaped. I keep thinking they are campanula but am not 100% sure.

thank you

It looks like campanula to me too:0) There are lots of varieties of this plant. I have three ground cover types. One white and dies down in the Winter, and two different types of blue campanula. One is an alpine variety which I think is the best, as its very compact, and looks lovely all year round. And has a deep blue bell shaped flower. The other has a much lighter colour leaf, and more of a star light blue shaped flower. But the last two are so useful during the Autumn and early Spring, as the leaves are in abundance.

Looks just like the campanula that I feed to mine, which also has lilac star shaped flowers. :D
