Bluebell Bellflower - White Form

Campanula rotundifolia

Description:

The purple ones are very plentiful, but this was my first time seeing the white form. I often find mites inside them. I almost always I find at least one of the flowers of a plant with mites in it. I think they like the pollen

Habitat:

Seen growing next to some rock outcroppings on a grassy area overlooking the ocean

Congratulations Machi, your delicate white form of a bellflower is our Spotting of the Day!

"This delicate white form of the Bellflower (Campanula rotundifolia) is our Spotting of the Day! Campanula rotundifolia, also known a Bluebell or Harebell depending on the location, is a flowering plant with a circumpolar distribution in the Northern Hemisphere. Its flowers are usually blue, but vary in color from white as seen here (this form is rare) through all shades of pale blue to deep blue, and in some locations pale pink".
