Seed Bombs- WILDFLOWER BLEND (a hand selected mix of North American wildflowers, good for all zones)
QUANTITY- 50
Seed bombs, like all of our seed paper products, are a mix of recycled paper scraps and our hand selected mix of North American wildflower seeds. I roll each ball by hand to ensure that every seed bomb has a plentiful amount of seeds to produce beautiful flowers for you!
Seed bombs measure approximately ¾ - 1 inch in diameter. I have provided a photo with seed bombs in my hand for a visual size reference. Please note sizes and shapes may vary due to their handmade nature.
PRODUCTION TIME- 2-3 business days from date of payment received (please note I do not work weekends or holidays- so these days are not included in stated production times)
COLORS - I offer 16 options for colors- white, ivory cream, gray, chocolate brown, red, pink, orange, peachy salmon, bright yellow, light yellow, grass green, light green, robin egg blue, light blue, purple, and light purple.
**You may select 2 color before adding to your shopping cart, and then you can leave additional color choices in the 'notes' section in your shopping cart before checkout. We do not have a limit on the number of colors per order, but please note adding additional colors may increase production time as colors are made in batches of 50 at a time
SEED BLEND- Our hand selected mix of wildflower seeds native to North America are White Yarrow, Shirley Poppy, Sweet Alyssum, Nodding Catchfly, Spurred Snapdragon, and Mexican Torch Hat. This mix includes both annual and perennial seeds. The annuals will bloom only once the same year you plant them, and then the perennials will bloom yearly starting the following year. These seeds are hand selected based on size of the seed and what we have determined to grow well in seed bomb form from our at-home trial and error growth tests.
PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS- Place seed bomb under a thin layer of soil (in an inside planter or outside during spring-early fall). Keep soil moist through seed germination, then water plants as needed. Germination typically take 4-7 days. Recommended spacing between seed bombs is 2 inches.
PACKAGING- Seed bombs are packaged in bulk in clear cello bags tied with a twist tie, not individually packaged.

COMMON QUESTIONS:
DO SEED BOMBS EXPIRE?- No. Seed bombs do not have an expiration date. We do give a general recommendation to plant within about 1 year from receiving. Seed bombs planted after this 1 year time frame will still grow and blossom into beautiful flowers, but seed germination rate drops off about 15% per year.
DO YOU INCLUDE PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS? Yes. We will include a sheet of planting instructions that you can then copy and cut apart.
CAN SEED BOMBS BE SHIPPED INTERNATIONALLY? Unfortunately we are not licensed to ship seeds outside of US borders. International customs laws differ per country, and many require extensive licensing from exporters (which is quite costly), so sadly- we cannot offer these wonderful products to those outside of the US.
WHAT DO YOU USE SEED BOMBS FOR? You can use them for all occasions- Birthdays, Baby Showers, Bridal Showers, Wedding Favors, Bar Mitzvahs, Memorials, Christmas Presents, Corporate Events, Earth Day Celebrations, School Fundraiser....etc!!! Recommended packaging can range from drawstring pouches, ziplock bags, small flower pots, etc...
HOW MANY SEED BOMBS SHOULD I GIVE PER PERSON? If this is the sole gift/favor for the event, I would recommend a minimum of 5 per person (Although a single seed bomb will produce multiple flowers, giving only 1 or 2 per person looks like an 'inexpensive' gift) If pairing with a small pot or other favor, then you may be able to give only 3 per person.
DO YOU GIVE DISCOUNTS ON LARGE ORDERS? No. Since I hand roll every seed bomb, the amount of work going into every seed bomb is the same regardless if you order 25 or 2,500.
I NEED A DIFFERENT QUANTITY. Within our shop, you will find listings for several different size orders. You can also mix and match these different size orders until you have added to your shopping cart the desired quantity. Or you may contact me and I can provide you a custom listing for your desired quantity.
