Culture Notes
Campanula will not do well in dry or wet soils or if humidity is high. As long as there is adequate drainage, this herbaceous plant will easily spread to show off its numerous bell-shaped flowers. It's a good idea to remove spent flower heads for continuous blooming. Shear lightly after blooming. In the fall OR spring, cut to basal foliage; cut in the fall if foliage is poor - this will improve the plant's appearance.
