Lemoine, de Nancy, a beaucoup amélioré cette espèce en croisant les C. Davidiana x C. Stans, nous y trouvons actuellement des fleurs à longs tubes, plus ou moins serrées sur la tige les variétés : Crépuscule, Comète, Campanule, Côte d'Azur, Ondine et autres ont des coloris bleu, blanc bleuâtre, mauve du plus joli effet. Ces plantes groupées, disséminées ou isolées en plates-bandes ou sur les pelouses sont très remarquées.
