KIRA SEEDS Cathedral Bells Seeds

Cathedral Bells are tender perennials, but in most climates, they are grown as annuals. Because they are sensitive to frost, they will complete their life cycle in a single season in cooler regions.

These are vigorous climbers that can reach significant heights, so provide a sturdy trellis, fence, or arbor at least 6 to 10 feet tall. Ensure the structure is securely anchored, as the vines can become heavy once fully grown.

Yes, starting them indoors 6 to 8 weeks before your last frost date is recommended, especially in shorter growing seasons. Use biodegradable pots to minimize root disturbance when transplanting, as they don't like having their roots handled.

Absolutely. The unique shape and nectar production of Cathedral Bells are highly attractive to bees and butterflies, making them an excellent choice if you are looking to support local pollinator populations in your garden.

It means keeping the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Once established, they are somewhat adaptable, but they perform best when you allow the top inch of soil to dry out slightly between waterings.

While they can tolerate some light shade, Cathedral Bells thrive in full sun. For the most consistent blooming from summer through fall, choose a location that receives at least six to eight hours of direct sunlight daily.
