Growing and Maintenance Tips
Campanula 'Clockwise Deep Blue' is a robust rock garden species that will thrive in sunny, well drained locations. It prefers to have its roots cool so a mulch is helpful. Good drainage is essential for success with this plant. Very wet or extremely dry soils will kill it. Divide it every three to four years if the plant becomes straggly looking. Dead heading or shearing back the plant after flowering will encourage rebloom.
