Meadow Mix Gift Box

Thank you for choosing our Eco Seed Balls!
Each seed ball is hand-crafted from recycled paper, making it an environmentally friendly way to add beauty and biodiversity to your space. The paper we use is sourced from local businesses, and by collecting their paper waste, we help reduce landfill waste, support sustainable practices, and save our partners money. The Eco Seed Balls themselves will degrade into the soil over time, contributing to the health of your garden.

Your seed balls come in a gift box with full instructions and a list of the seeds included. Inside your gift box are 10 seed balls. Each seed ball will cover approximately 1/2-1m2

Planting Instructions

1. When to Plant:

   • Spring: Plant your Eco Seed Balls now and enjoy a beautiful wildflower display this summer!
   • Autumn: Plant your Eco Seed Balls in the autumn for vibrant flowers next spring.

2. How to Plant:

   • In Pots: Simply place the seed balls on the surface of your potting soil and water them thoroughly.
   • In the Ground: Choose an area with plenty of sunlight and scatter the seed balls across your desired planting space. Gently press them into the soil and water well.

3. Care:

   • Water your seed balls thoroughly, especially in dry periods. During hot weather, increase watering frequency.
   • Keep the soil moist, but not soggy.

4. Encouraging Growth Year After Year:

   • At the end of the flowering season, mow the flowers down. This helps disperse the seeds into the soil for next year’s growth.
   • Alternatively, collect the seed heads by hand, dry them out, and sprinkle the seeds in pots or directly in the ground next season.

Why Plant Wildflowers?

Our Eco Seed Balls are not just beautiful; they’re crucial for supporting biodiversity. Wildflowers are vital for pollinators like bees, helping to provide them with the nectar they need for honey production. These flowers also contribute to water conservation, help prevent soil erosion, and create a healthy ecosystem for wildlife. By planting them, you’re helping protect our natural environment for generations to come.

Thank you for helping make a positive impact on our planet!
