Mini Marvels Starbright Carpathian Bellflower (Campanula carpatica ‘Starbright’) delivers a profusion of pure white, bell-shaped flowers from late spring through summer on a petite, mounding form. Its charming blooms rise above lush green foliage, reaching only about 6 to 8 inches in height with a spread of 10 to 12 inches. Despite its compact size, this perennial creates a showy display, making it a top choice for smaller gardens, rockeries, or edging a sunny border. Deer tend to avoid it, and its bright flowers naturally attract hummingbirds and butterflies, giving you a pollinator-friendly boost.
Mini Marvels Starbright adapts well to a range of soil conditions as long as drainage is sufficient. Native to mountainous regions of Europe, it tolerates both full sun and partial shade, fitting seamlessly into cottage gardens, containers, and mass plantings. Its rapid growth habit means you’ll enjoy reliable coverage without overwhelming surrounding plants. Pair it with taller perennials or shrubs to add contrast in texture and color while keeping the foreground neat and inviting.
Mini Marvels Starbright Carpathian Bellflower Care
Plant this bellflower in moist, well-drained soil and water regularly, especially during the first growing season. A spot that receives at least six hours of sunlight is ideal, but partial shade can help keep blooms fresh in hotter climates. A balanced, all-purpose fertilizer in spring boosts growth and flower production. Although it prefers slightly acidic to neutral soil, it adapts as long as drainage remains good.
Remove spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming and maintain a tidy appearance. Light thinning of any crowded or damaged stems helps new shoots develop. In colder climates, leave basal foliage intact through fall to protect the crown, cleaning up any old leaves in early spring. If grown in containers, bring them into a sheltered area if winter conditions become especially harsh.
Mini Marvels Starbright Carpathian Bellflower Spacing
When planting in rows or mass groupings, allow 10 to 12 inches between plants to create a uniform, cohesive display. For container arrangements, choose a pot at least 8 to 10 inches in diameter to accommodate the root system and support healthy growth.
