Campanula Champion White
Notify MeCampanula Champion White is a herbaceous perennial that features an abundance of large, bell-shaped flowers that rise above lush green foliage, creating a stunning contrast. Noted for its long flowering period, it provides beauty from late spring through to late summer. This versatile plant is perfect for borders, cottage gardens, and rock gardens, and its height and upright growth habit make it an excellent choice for the back of flower beds or as a centrepiece in mixed plantings. It also excels in cutting gardens, with its flowers making lovely additions to fresh flower arrangements.
Suited to various garden styles, including formal, cottage, and contemporary designs, Campanula Champion White’s clean, white flowers lend themselves well to monochromatic garden themes or as a calming contrast in vibrant settings. Thriving in full sun to partial shade, this plant prefers well-drained soil with moderate moisture and performs best in fertile soils. Plants should be spaced approximately 30 to 45 centimetres apart to allow for adequate air circulation and room for growth. When fully grown, Campanula Champion White reaches a height of 60 to 80 centimetres with a spread of about 30 to 45 centimetres, adding height, structure, and a focal point in any garden.
Trimming: Trim back after flowering to encourage a second flush. Cut back any dead or damaged stems to maintain a tidy appearance.
Deadheading: Remove spent flowers regularly to promote continuous flowering and prevent the plant from self-seeding.
Fertilising: Apply a balanced, slow-release fertiliser in early spring and again after the first flowering period to support vigorous growth and additional blooms.
Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during the establishment phase and dry periods. Campanula prefers well-drained soil. Avoid waterlogging, as this can lead to root rot.
Pest Control: Watch for aphids, slugs, and snails. Use organic slug pellets or handpick pests if they become problematic. Treat aphids with insecticidal soap if necessary.
Disease Management: Be vigilant for signs of powdery mildew and rust. Ensure good air circulation and avoid overhead watering. Apply appropriate fungicides if necessary and promptly remove any infected plant material.
