Seedball - Wildflower Seeds
£6.00
UK native wildflower seeds housed in a mini ecosystem, protecting your seeds from birds, ants and slugs giving them nutrition as they germinate and grow. A tube of 20 balls that can be scattered.
HOW IT WORKS
1) Scatter onto bare soil or compost
No need to dig! As the wildflower seeds are encased in clay and peat-free compost, they are essentially already “planted”. Simply scatter onto bare soil or compost (avoid scattering on grass) on a garden bed or in a pot, leaving at least 10cm between each ball. The outer clay helps to prevent birds and insects from eating the seeds, keeping the seeds nicely protected and ensuring your bee and butterfly friendly wildflower garden has every chance of growing success
2) Seeds germinate inside the ball and begin to sprout
With rain (or watering) and enough sun and warmth, the wildflower seeds inside the ball will start to germinate and little sprouts will begin to appear from the ball. This process can take 4-6 weeks from scattering. We add chilli powder to our Seedball recipe to help deter slugs and snails from eating the young shoots
