Mr Fothergills Campanula Carpatica Blue 1500 Seeds

Campanula - Carpatica Blue

Carpatica Blue produces plants smothered in large, open cup-shaped flowers, which are great for rock gardens, dry walls and borders. This hardy perennial reaches the height of 25cm.

Sow indoors for surest results, from March to June, 0.5cm deep, in a tray of compost. 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 into well-drained soil, September-October, 23cm apart. Or, sow thinly, outdoors, May-June, in a seed bed, 0.5cm deep, into finely-prepared, well-drained soil, which has already been watered. Thin seedlings to 5cm apart, before planting out to flowering position in autumn. Flowers from June to September, the following year.
