Campanula medium typically makes a basal rosette in its first year, followed by upright flowering stems in the second.
Botanical characteristics
The large bell-shaped flowers occur in blue, pink and white garden forms. Its biennial rhythm distinguishes it from low perennial campanulas. Cool conditions and moist, well-drained soil suit the species.
Biennial rosettes and bell-shaped flowers
For seed resellers, Single mixed, double mixed and Calycanthema Cup and Saucer mixed retain different flower-form designations. Compare those groups before choosing a colour within the bulk list.
