Can you grow campanula from seed?
You can propagate species campanula by seed sown in containers and placed in a coldframe in spring. Alpine species should be sown in an open frame in autumn so that the cold weather helps breaks seed dormancy and so encourages germination. It is quite normal for the more common campanulas to self-seed and naturalise in bare ground nearby but these may have flowers of varied colours. Campanula grow easily from softwood cuttings but it is easiest to lift and divide mature clumps in the spring to create more plants.Campanula seeds can be sown indoors from autumn to mid spring, sow from September to February for flowering April to August, or sow March through to April for flowering in July or August. Campanula can also be grown from seed directly sown outdoors in autumn or after the last frost in Spring.Although the plants may readily self-seed in some areas, many people simply choose to collect seeds for campanula propagation their selves. Of course, they can also be propagated through transplanting or division.
