    You can cut it back just to tidy it up, but re-flowering depends on conditions and soil type. Sometimes, the plants are still flowering in the autumn, especially in semi shaded areas.

    I rarely cut any plants, I pull the spent flowers off, so with this campanula I comb it with my fingers, its flowers come off easily and the green stays looking nice.
