California Bluebell

Phacelia campanularia. California Bluebell is a desert native that brings a splash of vivid, true blue to spring and early summer gardens. With its cup-shaped blooms and delicate, fern-like foliage, this wildflower creates a sea of color that’s hard to miss. Each blossom glows with deep sapphire tones, often with subtle violet markings and golden centers that catch the sunlight beautifully.

Fast-growing and easy to care for, California Bluebell thrives in full sun and well-drained soil—making it ideal for rock gardens, wildflower meadows, or any low-water landscape. A favorite among pollinators, this annual adds a cool, refreshing contrast to warm-season plantings and reseeds easily for a naturalized look year after year.
