How Plantable Seed Paper Works

From Paper to Plant

Flora Acre seed paper is designed to live twice: first as a card, calendar, or thoughtful gift, then as a simple growing experience. Seeds are incorporated into the paper, and each product includes guidance for planting and care.

Enjoy it first. Plant it when you’re ready.

A Simple Growing Ritual

From Thoughtful Gift to Growing Moment

Planting guidance may vary by product and seed variety, but the basic process remains simple: enjoy the paper first, then give the seeds moisture, soil, suitable light, and time.

1

Enjoy It First

Write the message, display the calendar, or keep the paper gift for the occasion before planting it.

2

Soak and Plant

Soak the seed paper until evenly damp and flexible. Place it on prepared soil and cover it with a thin layer of soil.

3

Keep It Moist

Water gently and keep the soil consistently moist, but not waterlogged. Provide suitable warmth, light, and airflow.

4

Watch It Grow

Continue caring for the soil as seedlings emerge. Growing time varies by seed variety, season, climate, and care.

Why the Paper Recipe Matters

Made with the Growing Experience in Mind

Our current seed-paper blend combines recycled paper fibre with coco coir and nutrients. The paper is designed to soften when watered, allowing moisture, air, and emerging roots to move through the material.

  • 01 Selected seeds Seed varieties are selected according to the product and its intended growing experience.
  • 02 Recycled paper fibre Forms the plantable sheet while supporting a more sustainability-minded material approach.
  • 03 Coco coir and nutrients Included in the paper blend to support moisture management and the early growing environment.
  • 04 No glass-fiber filler Our current plantable paper formulation is made without glass-fiber filler.

Use suitable light and warmth Follow the planting guidance supplied with the applicable product and seed variety.
Allow fresh air to circulate A well-ventilated growing location helps maintain a balanced environment around the soil.
Thin or transplant when needed Once seedlings are established and have developed true leaves, they may be thinned or moved into larger containers.
