About this product

Description

Each box contains 6 seed balls, made from a unique bee-friendly wildflower mix, 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 or expertise 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. One box will cover 1-2 pots or use all three boxes for 1 square metre in a garden.

Scatter anytime from early Autumn through to the end of Spring.

Variations

Each ball contains approximately 30 UK seeds from a mix of:

Green Bee Mix: Birdsfoot Trefoil, Red Clover, Viper’s Bugloss, and Wild Marjoram, all carefully selected for their bee-friendly properties.

Pink Bee Mix: Meadow Buttercup, Oxeye Daisy, Red Clover, Self Heal, and Yarrow, all designed to create a vibrant, pollinator-friendly garden.

Teal Bee Mix: Common Toadflax, Cornflower, Cowslip, Meadow Cranesbill, Musk Mallow, Oxeye Daisy, and Red Campion, this mix offers a stunning variety of colours and textures to attract beneficial bees.

Made from

We make the balls at our Seedball workshop in London, from a mixture of UK wildflower seeds, clay, peat-free compost and chilli powder.

The outer clay protects the seeds from ants, birds and mice, and once sufficient water has permeated the clay, the seeds inside begin to germinate - helped along by the nutrients and minerals contained within the ball. The chilli powder continues to deter slugs and snails while the seed ball slowly degrades and the seeds sprout.

Wildflowers are naturally slow to grow, and the balls can take 2-4 weeks to begin to sprout. Some will flower in the first year and others may not flower until the second year, but the display should keep getting better each year! The more they are initially watered, the quicker they will be to start to grow, although they will be ok to leave them to the rain to water them as well :)

Wildflower seed balls (or seed bombs as some people call them) are ideal for gifting, as you don't need to have much outdoor space or gardening knowledge to use them (or you could have lots of both!). They'll be loved by anyone who loves bees and wildlife gardening.
