500+Tall Bellflower Seeds(Campanula americana)Native American Wild Bellflower USA
These violet-blue stunners grow in tall spikes that are really unique with star-shaped flowers all along the stalk. This easy-to-grow wildflower flourishes in woodland areas or moist fields but can grow in average garden soil in full sun as well.
Sowing
This plant has the unique ability to be either an annual or a biennial, depending on the time it is planted. For annual plants direct sow in late fall, planting the tall bellflower seeds on the surface of the soil. For biennials, mix the Campanula Americana seed with moist sand and store it in the refrigerator for 30 days before planting in early spring. Thin or transplant the seedlings.
Growing
This plant adapts well to sand or clay, and grows best in partial shade and rather moist soil. It needs fairly moist soil, especially when becoming established; this plant has poor tolerance of drought. In its first stage of growth this plant will consist of a low cluster of leaves, followed by the appearance of the tall flowering stalk. Though this plant will self-seed, it spreads very slowly. It attracts hummingbirds, butterflies, and bees.
Harvesting
For fresh flowers, cut the stems just when they have begun to bloom. Place them in water immediately.
