Prefers a moderately rich soil that is moist and well drained. Fairly easy to maintain, though. Self-seeds. Flowers are slightly pendulous.

Plant in sun but away from strong winds. Divide every 2- to 3-years. Spreads rather quickly. Great for rock and cottage gardens.

'Coronata' is simply the 'hose-in-hose' form of the peach-leaved bellflower (ie. has two sets of petals to appear double). It is certainly not as double as some of the newer cultivars but the effect is not unattractive. This cultivar is a little shorter than the striaght species and does not self-seed as badly.
