Bluebell seeds are dispersed primarily by ants, which are attracted to the seeds' nutritious appendages called elaiosomes. The ants carry the seeds back to their nests, where they consume the elaiosomes and discard the seeds, thus aiding in their dispersal. Additionally, bluebell seeds can also be spread by wind and by animals that walk through the plants and carry the seeds with them.
