Description: Harebell (Campanula rotundifolia) is a common inhabitant of montane meadows and forests, and blooms virtually the entire summer. It is often mistakenly referred to as a bluebell, a similar but completely different wildflower. Its blossoms appear singly at the end of a slender stalk. The name itself is something of a curiosity; the most likely explanation is that it is a literal rendition of the Scottish pronunciation of "heather bell;" these plants share the same ecospace as Scottish heather.
