🌱 How to Care for Dalmatian Bellflower to Prevent Grey Mould?

💧 How to Water

Water deeply then let the top 2-3 cm of soil dry before watering again — about every 5 days in the growing season, less in winter. Never let it sit in standing water; its fine roots rot quickly if waterlogged.

Provide bright light with some direct morning sun for the best flowering. It tolerates light afternoon shade in hot climates but blooms poorly in deep shade.
