It is not bound to the Mediterranean, although it grows along the Mediterranean coasts of France, Italy, Slovenia, the Balkan countries, and Turkey. It is mainly a lowland plant, but it climbs in the Alps into the montane altitude zone. The southernmost growing specimens are known from Iran, and the northernmost growing ones from Novaya Zemlya. It grows scattered on the islands of the northern Adriatic (Ref. 2, 4). It would be in vain to look for it on the southern Adriatic and Mediterranean islands of Sicily, Corsica, Sardinia, Crete, and Cyprus. It is not exactly among the most common species of the genus Campanula. According to tThe International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) it has the status VU (vulnerable). - Because of its beauty, stately growth, and numerous flowers, it is also grown in horticulture. - Ref.: (1) A.
