I brought these flowers with us, when we moved from MI. We bought them at a Farmer's Market and I am pretty sure they are Bluebells. Am I wrong? Just making sure so I can split the plant next year and spread them around the gardens.

I had one at my old house and loved it. I didn't know they could spread out. Thanks for the warning Michele.

I think that is what I have also. I loved them at first, but they are very hard to get rid of. They can take over an area. Now I pull out most of them.

Another commonly seen name for this flower in the nursery trade is Blue (or white) Peach-leafed Bellflower. Campanula persicifolia is the botanical name.

I had some of those and they were called bellflowers. They could have another name. They are very cute little happy flowers.
