This species grows well in a rockery or raised flower bed where the soil is fertile, well-drained and the site is in the full to partial sun. It will not tolerate wet soil, and benefits from an adequate winter snow cover. It attains a height of no more than 12 centimetres and its spread, although described as up to 20 centimetres is large. It is a rhizomatous, rather vigorous, hairy perennial species. It spreads quickly forming clumps of still erect stems that are covered with many ovate to lance-shaped, round toothed dark green leaves.
Flower colour is variable ranging from pale blue, dark blue, purple, lavender-blue to white.
This species thrives best in a moderately fertile, well-drained soil in the full sun. In shade plants grow weakly and produce few flowers. This species can be easily raised from seed as described for Campanula carpatica . It will self seed quite readily and sometimes some interesting colour variations will be found among the resulting seedlings. This species may also be propagated by division or via terminal stem cuttings in the summer after flowering.
