3. Evergreen Foliage:

Maintenance Tips:

Caring for CAMPANULA muralis is simple with these maintenance guidelines:

1. Sunlight and Soil:

   • Plant Wall Bellflower in a sunny to partially shaded location with well-drained soil. Provide adequate sunlight for optimal flowering while ensuring the soil remains consistently moist but not waterlogged.

2. Watering:

   • Water CAMPANULA muralis regularly, especially during hot, dry periods, to keep the soil evenly moist. Avoid overwatering, as excessive moisture can lead to root rot. Mulch around the base of the plants to retain soil moisture and suppress weeds.

3. Deadheading:

   • Remove spent flowers regularly to prolong the blooming period and encourage continuous flowering. Deadheading also prevents self-seeding and promotes the production of new flower buds.

4. Dividing and Propagation:

   • Divide mature clumps of CAMPANULA muralis every few years to rejuvenate the plants and prevent overcrowding. Propagate Wall Bellflower from division or by collecting and sowing seeds in spring or autumn.

5. Winter Care:

   • In colder climates, provide winter protection for CAMPANULA muralis by applying a layer of mulch or straw around the base of the plants to insulate the roots. Remove any dead or damaged foliage in late winter or early spring.
