location
Near Kot settlement southwest of village Velika Slivica and Velike lašče (Dolenjska, Slovenia)notes Slo.: klobčasta zvončica - Habitat: hilly grassland, almost flat terrain, open, sunny place, elevation 520 m (1.700 feet); average precipitations 1.400 - 1.500 mm/year, average temperature 8-10 deg C, borderline between Dinaric and sub-Dinaric phytogeographical region. Substratum: soil. Comment: Campanula glomerata ssp. glomerata is a wide spread plant growing in almost whole Slovenia (but almost missing in its east part) as well as in the Alps and other European mountains including Pyrenees and Carpathians. It is an Euro-Asiatic floral element. However, it is not known from mountains of Balkan Peninsula. In Slovenia it is not a rare plant, but also not a common one. This beautiful bellflower is very variable and several subspecies or varieties have been described, which differ in overall size of the plant, shape of inflorescence, shape and size of leaves and hairiness. Their exact delimitation and distribution is still a problem to be solved. Subspecies glomerata can be relatively easy separated from others based on its typical inflorescence. It has several clusters of flowers along its flower stalk and the larger sitting on top of it, while other subspecies have flowers only at the top of the stalk in a single, dense, globose cluster.
