Campanula formanekiana Degen & Dörfl.
Taxon info
Campanula formanekiana was named after Eduard Formánek (1845–1900), a prolific plant collector in the Balkan Peninsula. It was first discovered in the Voras massif just N of the present Greek border, and is endemic in a small area in N Greece and F. Y. R. Makedonija, growing in somewhat shady crevices of limestone cliffs. A short-lived, monocarpic perennial, it is one of the most attractive species of Campanula with pale lilac-blue or almost white flowers up to 50 mm long.A
