Azorina (Azores Bellflower)

The highly endangered Azores Harebell is endemic of fresh cliffs and rocks on the Azores. Makes a small woody shrub with a broad trunk and large, beautiful pink bellflowers in summer. Grows easily in any well drained, humus rich and sandy soil. Shortly before flowering starts in summer plants will grow more slowly. As soon as temperatures decrease and air humidity rises in autumn they will restart growing.
Sow on any humus rich, sandy soil, at 15°C to maximum 22°C in partial shade. Do not cover dust like seeds. Keep soil always slightly moist but not wet from beneath. Keep seedlings sunny, especially in winter. Will grow rapidly with fifth pair of leaves from autumn to spring and may gain flowering size within four years. For any partially shaded to sunny spot in summer and always sunny place in winter, keep frostfree.
