Can I write on my card?

Yes, it is possible to write on the Plantable Postcards. We cannot assure that it will look as smooth as when writing on uncoated paper, as the card is made of coarser material. Please note that the seeds inside the card are visible as little black dots. Tip: Use a pen, fineliner or marker with water-based ink and preferably with a soft point for easiest writing on seed paper.

Will my Plantable Postcards be delivered folded?

No, your Plantable Postcards will not be folded.

How does 'seed paper' work?

1. Moist the card or paper; 2. Place in a pot or garden in a sunny place and cover with a small layer of soil; 3. Water every day to keep moist, the seeds will sprout and start growing; 4. Take good care of the small sprouts, for the best result, good luck!

Growing tips

The seeds within the paper thrive when planted during the sunny days of early spring to summer. Once you've tucked them into the soil, expect sprouts to pop up in just 5-10 days. Give them plenty of water, sunshine, and a little TLC, and you'll soon have a lovely patch of flowers, herbs, or veggies to enjoy.
