Platycodon grandiflorus syn. Campanula grandiflora

Just having a quick peep to make sure it's safe out there 💙 #balloonflower #platycodon

Yours are peeping out more than mine 😊

Lovely flowers Jane. I planted mine as bare roots and they did not come up. I will enjoy yours 👍💙💙

😂 they’re great fun 💜💙

My other one is just buds Elise 💙 @Auricula

Sorry to hear that Diane 😢 @hkyfvr

They definitely are Kerry 😍 @kez001uk

Thanks Jane. These things happen in nature. Will try again. 💜💙

I've had this plant three or more years and it's never had doubles before. There are two open at the moment and they're both like this. I guess I'll have to wait and see how the others open 💙🤔

Love the colour 💜💜💜

Thanks Lucy, me too 😍 @topiarytragedy

Fab flowers 💙💜

Aren't they just 💙 @hebelover

I don’t think I have a double either - I have three just love them 😊

Thanks Enid 💙 @godfreye

So delicate it amazes me how they make it through the winter💚

I have to put plant sticks in to remind me where they are 🙄😂 @Auricula

Me too - but they don’t remain where I put them 🤔

Mine don't move thank goodness 🙏 @Auricula

I just want to pop it 😂

Morning Jane, that's really unusual 🙋‍♂️🙋‍♂️

They are part of the Campanula family Jeremy. I love them and the way they look like little balloons before they open. Well worth a look @jpea 💙💙

Mine didn’t do very well at all last year but it was a bit crowded in. I’ve given it a tad more space this year Elise. SW facing btw @auricula 👍👍

Morning Jane ..love these 💙

Morning Julie, they’re like miniature hot air balloons @juliesgarden 💙💙

Morning, thanks you too 💙

Morning Jane 🙋🏼‍♀️

Yours are in front of mine!

Must admit I'm getting very fond of Campanulas so I'll look for this one @pelly

Morning Elaine @wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom 🙋🙋

Mine has shot up all of a sudden Dan @dantolomeo 💙👍

Got this last year from the SGC and thought I’d lost it over winter, so I was delighted when I found it this morning 💙💙Excuse the blurry pic. Cataloguing

That’s definitely a positive Jane 👍 @pelly 😘

I forget about mine every year Jane as they totally disappear but they never fail to come back despite been planted over time n time again 😂😂

Ahh, that explains why I thought I’d lost it Keely, thank you @Keely 🙏🙏

It certainly is Barbara @jacaranda 👍👍
