This subspecies is distinguished by its striking, bell-shaped flowers that range in color from pale pink to deep purple. It is native to regions in Europe and is often found in rocky or gravelly soils at high elevations. Despite its beauty, it remains relatively obscure in botanical studies due to its limited distribution and challenging growing conditions. Its ecological significance and ornamental value make it a fascinating subject for plant enthusiasts and researchers alike.
