American Bellflower is typically biennial, forming a leafy rosette in its first year and flowering in its second year before setting seed.
Readily reseeds itself when conditions are favorable, helping it persist in gardens without aggressive spreading.
While not widely used in medicine, some indigenous people appreciated its ornamental beauty and ecological value.
