Description
Campanula Poscharskyana commonly known as the 'Serbian Belle flower' is a delightful trailing perennial which is covered in violet-blue, star-shaped flowers from May through to August. The foliage and flowers will create a river cascading over walls, raised beds and as excellent ground cover.
This hard-working perennial requires little maintenance and will virtually look after itself once established.
Attractive to bees and other pollinating insects.
When to sow | Sow indoors in September to April. |
Where to sow | Sow indoors on the surface of moist compost filled pots or trays. Do not cover as the seeds require light to germinate. Place in a warm, light position (temperature of 16 to 28°C. If germination does not occur in 28 days cold stratify. Move to 4°C for 2-4 weeks then return to warmth. |
What to do Next | When seedlings sown indoors are large enough to handle, transplant into 7.5cm (3in) pots or trays and grow on in cooler conditions. |
When all risk of frost has passed, acclimatise indoor raised seedlings to outdoor conditions over 7 to 10 days. Then transplant into final growing position planting them 60cm (24in) apart. | |
Water well until plants are established. | |
