Grow Canterbury bells outdoors in any moist, fertile, well drained, non-acidic soil. Campanula medium will thrive in sun or semi shade, but the dainty bell-flowers will last longer in a slightly shaded position.

Water regularly until Canterbury bells plants are fully established. On exposed sites, support the tall flower stems with garden canes. After flowering, cut back the plants to remove faded Canterbury bells flowers and promote a second flush of blooms. Campanula medium will self-seed if the flower heads are left intact.
