Care Instructions
Campanula persicifolia prefers moderate temperatures and bright, indirect light. It should be watered when the top layer of soil dries out, and it thrives in environments with moderate humidity. Regular pruning helps maintain its shape and encourages new growth.Soil
This plant prefers well-draining loamy soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. Ensure the soil is kept moderately moist but not waterlogged. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot.Fertilizer
Use a balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10. Fertilize the plant every 4-6 weeks during the growing season to promote healthy growth and flowering.Repotting
Repot Campanula persicifolia every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its current pot. Choose a pot that is slightly larger than the current one and ensure it has good drainage. Repotting is best done in early spring before the growing season begins.Propagation
Propagate this plant through division or by taking basal cuttings in spring. Ensure the cuttings have at least one node and plant them in a well-draining soil mix. Keep the soil moist until new growth appears.Pruning
Prune the plant after flowering to remove spent blooms and encourage new growth. Cut back any dead or damaged stems to maintain the plant's shape and health.Toxicity
Campanula persicifolia is not toxic to pets or humans. It is safe to grow in gardens where pets and children are present.Additional
To encourage a longer blooming period, deadhead the flowers regularly. Mulching around the base of the plant can help retain soil moisture and suppress weeds.REVOLUTIONIZE YOUR PLANT CARE
