Campanulas are loved for their bell-like, usually blue flowers and long flowering season. Traditionally used in cottage garden schemes, campanulas look particularly lovely when grown under shrub roses. Campanula flowers are extremely attractive to bees and other pollinators.

Campanula 'Kent Belle' is a colourful campanula, bearing spikes of rich violet cups on strong stems. It's ideal for growing at the back of the border, where it will reach a height of around 1.2m.

For best results, grow Campanula 'Kent Belle' in moist but well-drained soil in sun or partial shade. Stake taller growing plants, or pinch out the growing tips to reduce their height.
