Milky bellflower Dwarf Pink Seeds - Campanula lactiflora Dwarf Pink

Milky Bellflower ‘Dwarf Pink’ is a perennial with an upright growth habit which, despite its height of 60 to 90 cm, is considered dwarf because it is much smaller than other varieties of the same species, that tend to grow between 120 and 150 cm tall.

The foliage of Campanula lactiflora Dwarf Pink consists of long slender, oblong, toothed medium green leaves.

From May to August the sturdy upright stems of the Milky Bellflower bear panicles made of 1 to 3 cm wide, deep pink flowers. The flowers are shaped like wide-open bells. In areas exposed to wind, stems should be staked in order to avoid their collapsing.

It is an excellent fast-growing perennial that blooms the same year it is sown. The first season the plant will reach a height of 30 cm which will then double the following year. Milky Bellflower ‘Dwarf Pink’ thrives in all good quality garden soils as long as they are free-draining. The presence of chalk/limestone does not bother it. It prefers a partly shaded position but it can also tolerate full sun.

Its robust flowering stems will blend perfectly into your summer floral arrangements.

It is a considerable ecological asset since all summer long, the melliferous flowers of the Milky Bellflower attract pollinating insects and butterflies in the garden. It’s a good way to improve the ecosystem of your garden and boost fruit and vegetable production.
