How to grow Harebell Seeds
Harebell seeds should be sown in seed trays and covered very lightly with compost.
This is best done in the spring. Harebell seeds are usually easy to germinate and the delicate seedlings, which are quick to develop, can be carefully pricked out and grown on, for planting out later in the year.
