It is native to East Asia (China, Korea, Japan and East Siberia). This species is known as platycodon.

==Description==
Growing to tall by wide, it is an herbaceous perennial with dark green leaves and blue flowers in late summer. A notable feature of the plant is the flower bud which swells like a balloon before fully opening.〔http://platycodon.net/〕 The five petals are fused together into a bell shape at the base, like its relatives, the campanulas. There are varieties with white, pink and purple blooms in cultivation. In Korea, white flowers are more common.
