Tussock bellflowers, or Campanula Carpatica, are lovely plants treasured for their distinctive bell-shaped blossoms. These flowers enhance the garden aesthetic, providing a valuable nectar source for pollinating insects at the same time. Native to many parts of the world, bellflowers are quite adaptable. They flourish in USDA hardiness zones 3 to 9.
We recommend you cold stratify bellflower seeds for 2-4 weeks before planting to improve germination rates. You can direct sow bellflower seeds in spring or fall or start them indoors 6-8 weeks ahead of time for early blooms. Cover the seeds lightly with soil, providing some light for germination.
