This is a 2 year old plant.I love the flower shapes.These are not the greatest pix but here goes anyway.

It does have a very unusual flower shape. Pretty!

I would cll it fringed bell shape.
I certainly hope the second years blooms are bigger with a better season in 2013.

Cute little bell Jo Ann
Betty Corning is a reliable bloomer.

Ramona is blooming...is it early or second ?

Arabella growing through the marigolds...a happy unplanned combo

I forgot that it is so easy to post more than one one picture at a time here at ATP!

those are so pretty

Nice Anna! Our drought is not being kind to my clematis at the moment.

Hey ya'll, here are my blooms today from the Hotlanta, it's blazing hot here, but the Arabellas (I have 4) are doing well. Annette

Durandii, and my noid that I believe is some kind of viticella, is also blooming today. Durandii is a little lighter than it appears in the photo.

Hi Annette, isn't Arabella a work horse? Mine blooms non-stop all summer long. And such a pretty color blue too. Nice pictures.

Thanks, I just put them in this past spring, and I'm pleased with how well they're growing and blooming. I can't wait till they mature in the next few years. I also agree that they do have a lovely blue color, it's nice to have blooms at this time of the year when other plants are petering out. Annette
