Product Information

We believe you vote with your dollars and hope you take a chance today and try some Seedles seed balls.

Peatlands are also often the home for many scarce animals and plants, which aren't found in any other type of habitat.We usually recommend reading seed packets before planting, but if you’re feeling a little wild and want to break the mold, these seed bombs might be the thrill your inner guerrilla gardener is looking for!

This is not unlike other forms of gardening because not every plant thrives in conventional gardens. If you're not sure, find out which plants are problem plants for your area or region; don't just rely on general information because some plants might be ideal in their local environment but a rampant pest in yours. The seeds are dispersed by being thrown (like a grenade), into an area lacking vegetation or otherwise. Seed bombs also make nice gifts – you could even make some packaging out of an old toilet roll tube like we’ve done in the photo below. Rose recommends using a pinch of seeds in each bomb, the number you can easily pick up with your thumb and forefinger.Continue mixing, breaking up clumps of clay and dirt, until the mixture has a consistency similar to cookie dough. The success of the seeds will depend a bit on the soil they land on, so try to throw them somewhere that looks like it will support wild flowers if given the chance. Only combine seeds with similar qualities or habitat preferences, or plants that are known to grow well together. The mixture of clay and wool compost will dry out to preserve the seeds in perfect conditions to burst into life when they are lobbed into barren areas that could do with seeding with wildflowers.
