Campanulas from seed - but what are they?
« on: June 11, 2010, 02:10:14 PM »
Clare raised these two campanulas from AGS seed.
The first, around 6/7" tall and across, was labelled 'andrewsii' and the second, around 12" tall and across, 'cretica'.
Clearly neither is correct and I would appreciate any help in identifying them.

The last one looks like Symphyandra zangezur, better known under the misspelled name S. zanzegur.

And, more correctly now known as Campanula zangezura

Finally! (And apparently yet another misspelling in IPNI...)
