How to Care for the Plant
Pruning
After weeding, prune your bluebell flowers by pinching off the tips of any fading flowers and by cutting the taller flowering stalks one-third of the way down after blooming has ceased.
Soil
Phacelia Campanularia seeds have to be kept moist until germination, and the growing California Bluebell likes to grow in full sun and sandy, dry, or moist well drained soil, but the plant adapts to various growing conditions.
Temperature
California Bluebell seeds should be started directly outside with optimum germination temperatures of 50 - 55 degrees.
