Planting Advise

Although the cards can be planted either in your garden or in a pot I recommend planting them in a pot as it is easier to maintain the moisture and warmth levels needed at the beginning.

The cards are best planted after the lasts frosts have passed, ideally between April – June.

For the best results we recommend that the card be soaked in water for at least one hour prior to planting.

The card can be planted either whole or torn into pieces. Torn into pieces will enable you to use over a larger area and to get a better distribution of flowers.

After planting it is important to keep the paper watered and warm during the first 7-10 days. This is to help the paper to break down, release the seeds and germination process to start.If the paper is too dry, and hard the seeds
are unable to grow through it!

Once seedlings begin to appear they can be watered as normal.
