Six hand-illustrated boxes, each with a unique wildflower mix for attracting garden wildlife. Beautiful Christmas gift for gardeners, children and anyone who just loves nature.
Each box contains 6 seed balls, each with a different wildflower mix to attract the type of wildlife shown on the top of the box. Each ball is made from a mixture of native wildflower seeds, clay, peat-free compost and chilli powder, which together help to protect the seeds during early growth. They’re incredibly easy to use – simply scatter on top of soil or compost (no digging required!), water well (to help initiate growth) and nature will do the rest.
They will work well in garden beds, window boxes and balcony pots and are best scattered in early Spring or Autumn. One box will cover 1-2 pots or use all three boxes for 1 square metre in a garden. An instruction card is included in each box.
Ideal for Christmas gifting, whether to give as a full set or to split for eco-friendly stocking fillers and Secret Santa gifts. Add a special touch with an Ally Gore wildlife card and personal message for £3.25.
Each ball contains approximately 30 UK seeds from a mix of:
