Native Yellow Bellflower | American Woodlands

There are some gorgeous woodland plants in North America, which work to blanket the bases of the trees in color, but they’re often tricky to keep in your home garden. Many of them bloom once, and then they’re gone. The Native Yellow Bellflower is one of the exceptions to that rule—it’s very long lived, and you’ll be happy to see this perennial return for years. Because it’s native to North America, you can expect it to grow very easily here. It’s drought tolerant and content in many types of soils around the USA, whether yours is more loamy, sandy, dry, clay or acidic. You can simply grow it in a pot on a shaded patio, or let it brighten up a rock garden, but it really shows off what it can do in woodland gardens, making a bright companion to other shady favorites like ferns, hostas and trillium. If you’re planting it around other native woodland plants, it’ll be among the first to bloom. After it flowers, it’s still an architecturally interesting plant, growing more upright as we go into summer and developing attractive seedpods. Uvularia grandiflora
