Description
Mr Fothergill’s Campanula Carpatica Blue Seeds, Neat and compact, for tubs and edging. After flowering, trim back the plants lightly to help maintain their shape for the following year.
Sow indoors, for surest results, 0.5cm deep, in a tray of compost. Do not cover. Water well and place in a cold frame, unheated greenhouse or on a warm kitchen windowsill. Keep moist. Seedlings usually appear in 21-35 days. Transplant 5cm apart to other trays when large enough to handle. (Always hold seedlings by a leaf, never by the stem.) Gradually accustom young plants to outside conditions before planting out 23cm apart. Or sow outdoors thinly in a seed bed, into finely prepared soil which has already been watered. Cover lightly with fine soil. Keep moist and weed free. Thin seedlings to 5cm apart before planting out to flowering position in autumn.
• A hardy perennial, flowers the year after sowing
• Smothered in large, open cup shaped flowers
• Great for rockeries. Will attract pollinators
