The blue one I believe is the;;;;; Common name peach-leaf bellflower Family campanulaceae Life cycle perennial flowers blue, white (June) Size 2' Light sun-part shade From seed germinate at room temperature, do not exclude light detailed seed-starting info below seed ripens mid-August Upright plantstalks covered in large bellflowers in late spring. The common and botanical names derived from the long narrow leaves.They self- seed, sometimes enough to give quite a show in early June. ***** is the other one a hibiscus? Can I see the entire plant with the leaves??

The blue one is definitely some kind of campanula. I thought it was Canterbury Bells. That one is a biennial.

Canterbury bells, I'm pretty sure. I have both peach leaved and the canterbury. The flower is hard to tell from just the flower. I have Mexican primroses that look just like those. Oenothera berlandii or something like that. Almost a weed around here.
