Product Description

Soft ivory bells suspended on tall elegant stems, Canterbury Bells are one of those flowers that make a garden feel instantly romantic. Their delicate cup-shaped blooms sway beautifully in the breeze and add a timeless cottage garden feel to beds, borders, and bouquets alike.

A favourite for cut flower growers and floral designers, these blooms are incredibly graceful in arrangements and pair beautifully with foxgloves, phlox, larkspur, and roses. They are also a magnet for bees and pollinators in spring.

Perfect for gardeners wanting an old-world flower that feels gentle, dreamy, and quietly spectacular.
