Growing Non-GMO Clip Series Campanula Flower Seeds
Campanula is grown as popularly outdoors as indoors. To grow Clips Series White seeds as an annual, begin seeds indoors 8-10 weeks prior to the final frost. But to plant as a biennial, sow seeds directly outside late into the spring for blooming early next year. Campanula seeds will germinate in 14-21 days with full lighting. Lightly press without covering 3-4 Clips Series White campanula seeds 12 inches apart in average, evenly moist, and well-drained soil in full sun to partial shade. Clips Series White is native to cooler, shaded, higher altitude climates, and will decline in the consistently hot summer months.
The blooms will start coming out in the early summer of their second year. Regularly deadhead the spent blooms throughout the season to keep it blooming into the fall. In favorable conditions, this plant will self-sow a new generation if not deadheaded completely. Provide more shade in hotter climates and less shade in cooler climates. Let the foliage persist on the plant throughout the fall and winter to protect the roots and crown. Apply an even fertilizer (10-10-10) or a helping of compost each spring to stimulate new growth. Divide the clumps every 2-4 years in either the spring or the fall. Consistency is key with these beautiful bellflowers.

About Clip Series Campanula Garden Seeds
Although campanula will self-sow in some conditions, it is not considered invasive and is typically a great garden plant with minimal issues.
Campanula carpatica, or otherwise known as Bellflower, is native to the stony mile-high altitudes of Southern Europe, but has since naturalized throughout the rest of Europe and North America in similar cool climates. The genus Campanula earns its name from the Latin word campana meaning "bell" in reference to its internationally famous bell-shaped blooms.
It is common for beekeepers to maintain campanula plants because they tend to produce a significantly sweeter batch of honey than other flowering plants.
Campanula can also be known as Tussock Bellflower, Carpathian Bellflower, or Carpathian Harebell. Clip series white can also be called White Clips or Weisse Clips
While flowering in the second season is guaranteed in good cultivation conditions, it is also very common for Campanula to produce those beautiful bellflowers in the first season as well.
