Campanula pyramidalis - Blue Chimney Bellflower

The Latin name campana translates to bell.

A clump-forming herbaceous perennial sending up tall upright stems with green, lance-shaped foliage and numerous large, outward facing, pale blue or white bell-shaped flowers . Plants form a pyramidal shape with their tall stems. As plants grow up to 2m in height it will need support. Long flowering period during summer.

Grow plants in well in fertile, neutral to alkaline soil that is moist but well-drained, in full sun or partial shade avoiding wet conditions in winter. A semi-shade position will ensure the best flower colour is preserved.

Excellent cut flower.

Sow seeds in pots during autumn. Gently place seeds on top of the soil. Seeds need light for germination. Water and keep damp. Seeds will germinate when temperatures are around 20C. Grow on in pots until plants are around 10cm high. Harden off and transplant into the garden.
