Apply an organic fertilizer to the perennial bed in early spring. This will encourage the plant to keep flowering. Stake taller varieties, especially if they're in the shade. Cut back the tall flower stems to the base of the plant in spring. Bellflowers can be divided by digging up the new clumps that form next to the big plant.
Tall bellflowers make good cut flowers for indoor arrangements.
