Use:
Canterbury Bells are good cottage garden plants and combine effectively with delphiniums, hollyhocks and other similarly tall plants. The white form is commonly used for outdoor June weddings, probably because it can be transplanted easily in full bloom.


Culture:
Canterbury Bells are biennials, so some flowers should be allowed to set seed each year in order to provide a continuous supply of seedlings to produce flowers their second year.
