Uniform, productive cut flower. Conventional seed with conventional pelleting. This seed is not NOP-compliant.
Campanula makes a nice addition to a cut flower production in that it offers a bountiful crop in spring to early summer, often in the gap between early spring crops and summer annuals. Stems are sturdy and add structure, bulk, and visual interest to bouquets.
Unique, pale lavender bells. The Champion Series is bred for upright-facing blooms and uniform plants. Plants will produce flowers in the first year of production, if started early enough in the season.
NOTE: Plants should be started in fall, winter, or early spring. Daylength sensitive plants require short days during seedling development to ensure sufficient stem length and vegetative growth before flowering under long days.
Fall-sown plants overwintered well in our unheated Zone 5 tunnel trials, blooming in early June on very tall, vigorous plants. Winter-sown plants flowered in mid-June through early July on shorter plants in our spring tunnel trials.
Also known as bellflower or Canterbury bells.

| DAYS TO GERMINATION | 7-14 days at 65-68°F (18-20°C) |
| SOWING | Transplant (recommended) – Sow into 128-cell plug flats or preferred seedling container, 6-8 weeks before planting out. Light is required for germination but applying a fine layer of vermiculite or growing media on top of the seed will help to maintain the moisture levels needed for germination and dissolve the pellet coating. Bottom water or mist lightly to avoid displacing seeds and soil. Direct seeding is not recommended. NOTE: Plants should be started in fall, winter, or early spring.

| LIGHT PREFERENCE | Sun. Tolerates part shade. |
| PLANT HEIGHT | 30-40". |
| PLANT SPACING | For single-stem cuts, 4-6". For multi-stem / well-branched plants, 10-12". Support recommended.

Multi-stem production may be more suitable for outdoor production, where growing real-estate is less precious. Expect yields of 8-10 stems per plant. |
