Broad-leaved bell - gentle modest
Many flowers that grow well and are very common in natural conditions have become permanent residents of well-groomed flower beds. Such plants include broadleaf bellflower. This humble flower is a worthy decoration for any flower garden.
This type of wild plant is widespread throughout Europe, from edge to edge preserving its beauty and tenderness. Depending on the illumination of the place of growth, the ability to renew itself changes in the bell. So, if a bell grows in the shade of trees, then it has a short root and only one plant that will appear next year. But if this flower has a sunny edge as a place of residence, then the length of the root more than doubles, and the next season several daughter plants can grow in place of one plant.
It is best to plant broadleaf bells with seeds. Vegetative propagation by force, by dividing the bush, the plant does not tolerate too well and most often dies. Therefore, in a natural way, the bell is transferred to new places of growth only by seeds. The same should be done by those gardeners who decide to plant this gentle, modest plant in their garden.
Bellflower broadleaf loves forest soil, moist. He loves sunny places where he successfully gains strength, but he will also feel comfortable in shading.
Bells that are grown in the garden are prone to spoilage by weevils. Such plants do not produce seeds, since it is the flowers that are damaged by pests. in order for the plant to be healthy, grow and develop well, it should be protected from pests with the help of special preparations.
Good luck!
