Plant Overview

A classic cottage garden flower. Large pure-white bellflowers on tall stems which don't require staking.

Introduced from Southern Europe in 1596. Cottagers used to distil a water from the leaves and roots, which was used as a cure for sore throats. The roots were also eaten as a vegetable.

Campanulas are an invaluable addition to a cottage garden or informal border.

Height and spread: 80cm x 45cm

Common name(s): The Peach Leaved Bellflower; White Bellflower.

All our plants are supplied in 9x10cm pots unless otherwise specified. Plants in this size pot establish quickly in the garden and often outpace plants in bigger pots planted at the same time. Our potted plants can be planted immediately, unless otherwise noted, or you can leave them in their pots until you are ready to plant. We grow almost everything we sell ourselves, in our nursery in the Buckinghamshire countryside. Our prices include VAT at 20%.
