Description

Campanula persicifolia ‘Telham Beauty’ is the archetypal cottage garden plant. Through spring it grows a rosette of lance-shaped, deep-green leaves before throwing up spikes that will eventually burst into flower as summer emerges. When the flowers do emerge they are a wonderful lavender-blue colour, with a papery, semi-translucent texture. The cup (or bell, hence its common name) shaped flowers gently nod in the breeze and spikes emerge throughout summer, providing a long season of interest. They make excellent cut flowers.

These established, garden-ready plants have been grown at our nursery in Cornwall and are supplied in two-litre containers. They will grow to an ultimate height of about 1 metre (or 3 feet) in good soils and a spread of around half of that, at 50cm (1 and a half feet).

Growing Advice

Most garden Campanulas are versatile and rewarding flowers to grow. Campanula persicifolia is no exception. They grow well in partial-sun or full-sun locations, and need soil that doesn’t dry out too quickly nor that becomes waterlogged in winter. Because the flowers are borne on spikes they prefer sheltered locations, not too exposed to the wind, which makes them a great mid-border plant where they can be supported in and amongst other plants. In a mild winter they will remain evergreen.

Before ordering with us please make sure you read the pages below to help you understand what to expect when buying plants online from a nursery such as ours. For instance the photographs in our listings are intended to give you an impression of our plants in their mature (and usually flowering) form. The last photograph in this listing provides an indication of the size of the plant to expect when you buy from us. It is not a guarantee of the way the top growth will look when you receive the plant(s), as this will depend on the time of the season you have ordered the plant and it simply isn’t possible to provide photographs of the plants at every stage of growth during the year. Plants ordered in spring, autumn or winter for example may have much reduced or tired top growth that will regrow later in the season / the following season and you should be aware of this when ordering at these times. If you have any questions about the current condition of any of our plants please do get in touch, or see the links below for more information about what to expect.
