How Seed Paper Works

Our plantable paper is handmade from recycled paper and embedded with wildflower seeds, no trees harmed, ever! 

Simply plant the card in a pot of soil, water it well, and place it in a sunny spot. The paper will naturally break down, and soon, beautiful wildflowers will begin to grow. 

Nothing left behind but blooms and zero waste. Let your words grow...

Planting Instructions

  • Step 1 - Prepare the Soil

    Fill your pot 2/3 full with good potting soil. Tamp down the soil and add more if necessary. You want the pot to be firmly full, but not packed. The paper can be planted indoors or outside, so you get to choose according to the temperature and conditions at the time of planting (we don’t recommend planting outside if it’s blizzarding or desert-hot!).

  • Step 2 - Plant your Card

    Take your plantable paper and cover the soil in the prepared pot with the paper. It’s okay if the paper overlaps. Spread a 1/8 inch layer of soilover the plantable paper pieces and tamp down gently on top.

  • Step 3 - Water gently but thoroughly

    After planting the paper in your pot, give it a good soak. You want the paper and the soil to be nicely damp but not swimming in water. During the first 10 days, keep the paper moist at all times. The water is necessary for germination.

  • Step 4 - Let it Grow

    Once sprouts appear, continue to keep the paper moist but be careful not to overwater. Once sturdy plants appear, water as needed. Let your words grow.
