Perfect for pollinators

Clustered Bellflower -campanula glomerata– grows best in light dry grassland and is well suited to chalk and limestone soils. It should only be grown on sites where there is plenty of sunlight, and in gardens, can be included in a sunny flower border or rock garden. This is a low growing species with intense blue flowers that are extremely beautiful, and also very attractive to passing bees and butterflies between June to August. Clustered Bellflower looks best growing with other chalk and limestone plants that flower in early to mid summer such as Oxeye daisies, Greater Knapweed, Meadow Cranesbills and Small Scabious.

How to grow Clustered Bellflower Seeds
Clustered Bellflower seeds should be sown in autumn, in seed trays and covered very lightly with compost. Trays should be covered in glass to retain moisture and left outside over winter for germination the following spring. Once germinated, the seedlings can be pricked out and grown on, for planting out later in the year.

RHS Perfect for Pollinators.
The RHS Perfect for Pollinators mark is only given to plants that support pollinating insects in gardens. Bees, butterflies, moths, hoverflies and many others visit flowers to feed on nectar and pollen; while doing so they transfer pollen and increase seed set
and fruit development. Find out more at: rhs.org.uk/plants
