Platycodon 'Sentimental Blue'

Platycodon 'Sentimental Blue' is a compact, dwarf variety of balloon flower that produces stunning deep blue, star-shaped blooms from early summer to fall. Its signature balloon-like buds open into rich, five-petaled flowers, creating a striking display in garden beds, borders, and containers. This low-maintenance perennial thrives in full sun to partial shade, tolerates drought once established, and attracts pollinators while remaining deer-resistant. Its neat, mounding habit makes it an excellent choice for small spaces, edging, or rock gardens.
