Campanula Norman Grove

<p><strong>Bellflowers are often perennial plants that offer abundant and long-lasting blooms!</strong> We mostly know bellflowers for their blue or mauve flowers, but they can also be white or pink depending on the variety. With their delicate, nodding bell-shaped flowers, bellflowers have a fragile and touching charm… Their blooms may be simple, but they are undeniably enchanting! Bellflowers can grow very tall (up to 2m), with an upright habit and spiked flowers, or they can be ground-covering, forming cushions smothered in blooms, like the wall bellflower or the Carpathian bellflower.</p> <p>Their use in the garden is highly versatile: taller varieties like <em>Campanula persicifolia</em> or <em>Campanula glomerata</em> are perfect for flower beds, while smaller types such as <em>Campanula portenschlagiana</em> or <em>carpatica</em> are better suited to rockeries or low walls. Others are ideal for borders, woodland gardens, or window boxes… Bellflowers are incredibly adaptable, fitting a wide range of gardening needs!</p> <p><strong>Bellflowers are very easy to grow.</strong> Undemanding, they require minimal maintenance (or even none at all, as with <em>Campanula muralis</em>). <strong>We recommend planting them in full sun or partial shade, in well-drained and light soil.</strong> They can be easily propagated by seed, division, or cuttings… and sometimes even self-seed!</p>
