Description
Great party bag gift for kids, to encourage an interest in nature and wildlife and get kids growing wildflower seeds! The seed packet is made from recycled white paper and measures 9 x 12 cm. The seeds are UK wildflower species, grown in the UK. They are in a glassine paper sachet, not a plastic and foil one. The whole product is recyclable, so encourage the children to recycle the packet and sachet once they have planted the seeds!
What is glassine paper? Glassine paper is an eco-friendly and plastic-free alternative to mass-produced heat-sealed plastic and foil/paper sachets. Unlike those sachets glassine paper can be recycled and is biodegradable. It is also resistant to moisture and will keep the seeds dry in the main packet.
Need to store the seeds for a while? The seeds are viable for a few years and are easy to store by keeping them somewhere cool and dry out of direct sunlight.
About the Seeds
There are 7 species of wildflower in this mix, which is our own bespoke mix. The seeds are grown in the UK and are UK species only – all of them are amazing for insects! Our seed grower keeps traceable records of their seeds and is inspected annually by DEFRA, so you can be sure you are getting a quality product. You will get about a gram or so of seeds, enough to create a 1 metre square wildflower patch.
The seeds are Ladies Bedstraw, Teasel, Lesser Knapweed, Ox-eye Daisy, Selfheal, Musk Mallow and Wild Carrot.
