Soil Requirements Bellflowers grow best is loose, well-draining soil with a pH range between 6-8. By creating a planting mixture that is 50% soil and 50% compost you will ensure healthy, long-living plants that will produce an abundance of beautiful flowers for years.
Light Requirements Bellflowers will tolerate a little shade in the afternoon, but prefer to grow in a location that is in full sun.
The more direct sunlight the plant receives, the more blooms it will produce.
Temperature and Humidity Requirements Warm days and cool nights are ideal for Bellflowers.
These plants won’t grow well in regions with hot, tropical climates nor in regions that dip below 50 degrees at night. Bellflowers will develop powdery mildew in humid climates and soils that are kept overly moist.
