Platycodon grandiflorus 'Pop Star Blue' (Balloon Flower)

Platycodon grandiflorus ‘Pop Star Blue’

A charming dwarf balloon flower with a tidy, compact habit perfect for small garden spaces and containers. Unique inflated buds swell like tiny balloons before bursting open into star-shaped, soft violet-blue flowers throughout summer. Narrow, blue-green foliage forms a neat mound beneath the blooms, adding long-lasting texture to borders and patio planters.

Its compact size makes it ideal for the front of borders, rock gardens, and mixed containers. Balloon flowers are easy to grow, long blooming, and attract plenty of pollinators to the garden.
