Product description
Campanula portenschlagiana is a charming, low growing Bell Wallflower that brings a soft cascade of violet blue blooms to walls, borders, and containers. Its compact, tumbling habit makes it perfect for brightening steps, rockeries, and patio pots, where it spills gracefully over the edges and adds a touch of natural charm. With its generous flowering and neat, mounded shape, Campanula is a lovely way to introduce colour and texture to smaller spaces or to soften the lines of hard landscaping.
This dependable little perennial is wonderfully easy to care for. Plant it in well drained soil, give it a sunny or lightly shaded spot, and water regularly while it settles in. Once established, it rewards you with evergreen foliage, long lasting colour, and very little fuss. A light trim after flowering keeps it looking fresh and encourages a second flush of blooms, making it a joyful, low maintenance addition to any garden.
Please Note: When purchasing plants, please consider that each live item is unique and may therefore differ from the images shown, which are for illustration purposes only. The plant will be supplied in a growers pot. Depending on season, some plants may be pruned back to encourage growth and deciduous plants may arrive without leaves.

Garden Plant Size Guide
Plants in larger pots can be multiple years older than their smaller counterparts with more mature root systems and foliage. This makes them able to thrive as a full size plant in your garden quicker than smaller alternatives.
The most common size of pot that garden plants come in are 9cm/1L/3L/5L this is in reference to the diameter at the top of the pot.
9cm potted plants still remain the most popular cost effective option though, they just may take a little patience to allow them to grow into full maturity once planted in your garden.

Instructions
Top Tip
Plant Wall Bellflower near the edge of walls, steps, or containers to give it room to trail naturally and show off its cascading habit.
How to Water
Water Campanula regularly during its first few weeks to help the roots establish well. Once settled, it only needs occasional watering, with a little extra during hot, dry spells to keep it blooming happily.
How to Plant
Plant Campanula portenschlagiana in well‑drained soil, setting it at the same depth it was in its original pot. Give it a sunny or lightly shaded spot, water it in well, and allow it to settle - it will quickly spread and begin to trail naturally over edges and walls.
