Campanula Trachelium Alba

Description

Large flared ivory-white bells open along many strong stems which carry rough, nettle-like (but non-stinging!) leaves.The pure white version of this ancient cottage garden favourite comes quite true from seed as long as it is grown alone. This clump-forming, non-running plant will only spread by seed.

Sowing Advice

Sow immediately at any time onto preferably a soil-based compost, covering with fine grit to approximately their own depth. Germination MAY be quicker if kept at 15 to 20 degrees C. but many seeds WILL NOT come up the year they are sown, needing winter chilling after sowing, and ONLY come up with natural spring germination.
