Peach-bells is a charming cottage-garden perennial that prefers partial shade and consistently moist, well-drained soil. Plant it in a sheltered spot and divide clumps every few years to maintain vigour and promote abundant bell-shaped blooms in summer. Minimal feeding is needed — a light application of balanced fertiliser in spring is sufficient.
