How long does a bluebell take to flower from seed?

Bluebells( Scillia ) Collect seed in late summer and sow in Autumn, to germinate in spring. They will flower in about 3 years in the right conditions. Most bulbs take about this time from germination to flowering stage. Large bulbs can be multiplied by chipping method.


Hope this info is of some help to you, happy gardening!

How long does a bluebell take to flower from seed?
Tassie is right, tho I have had success in 2 years from seed.


The important thing to note is, the bulb must form first - year #1. Then the bulb has to grow the flower - year #2.


So the following spring you should see a flower.


Important to use the proper fertilizer during this time.
