'Thank you' Bee and Butterfly Mix Seedballs

£2.99

Say “thank you” with flowers — not just a card. Our Thank You Seedballs are a small, gift-ready box of 6 ready-to-scatter seedballs filled with a bee & butterfly-friendly wildflower mix chosen to bring colour and nectar to small spaces like pots, window boxes, paving cracks and borders. Each seedball is hand-made using an ancient, proven technique: native wildflower seed is encased in clay and peat-free compost (and often a pinch of chilli to deter pests) so seeds stay protected until conditions are right for germination. Scatter in spring or autumn, leave about 10 cm between balls and let rain and pollinators do the rest — no digging or specialist kit required.

Why you’ll love Thank You Seedballs:

  • Small, gift-friendly box: Perfect as a thank-you favour or postal memento.

  • Pollinator friendly: Selected to provide nectar and pollen for bees, hoverflies and butterflies.

  • Low effort & eco credentials: Peat-free compost, natural clay casing and compact packaging.

Perfect as a small, sustainable thank-you gift — easy to post, or include with cards. All Seedball mixes are produced by Seedball — a company set up by conservation scientists to increase British wildflowers and support pollinators. Seed sourcing is responsibly managed in the UK and mixes use peat-free compost to reduce environmental impact.

Wildflower Seed mix included:

Cornflower (Centaurea cyanus)

  • Flowers: March to November

Silenus the merry god of the woodlands in Greek mythology, gave his name to Silene dioica. The second part of its scientific name, dioica, means 'two houses', and refers to the fact that each Red Campion plant has flowers of one sex only, so that two plants are needed to make seeds.

In Austria and Germany oxeye daisies were hung inside the house as it was believed they would repel lightning.

  • Emily & Ana are the creators of Seedball – they want to fill the world with wildflowers.

    They are on a mission to help increase the abundance of British wildflowers and wildlife that depend upon them. They believe that if we can all better use whatever space we have available to us (whether a back garden, balcony, window box, little patio etc) together, we can have a hugely beneficial impact on our local ecosystems. The last 50 years has been witness to huge declines in pollinators and other garden wildlife, but together we can really really do something to reverse this.

  • What is a Seedball?

    A ball made from seeds, clay, peat-free compost and chili powder.

    Why use Seedballs?

    The ball prevents the seeds from being a tasty lunch for birds and insects, thereby increasing the chances of your flowers growing. Plus they’re super easy to use, no digging and no expert knowledge needed!

    What's in the box?

    There are 6 balls in each box, and around 30 seeds per ball.

    How do I use Seedballs?

    Throw onto soil or compost in a garden bed or planter in Spring or Autumn, leaving at least 10cm between each ball. Your Seedball has everything it needs to grow and, once the ball becomes moist and the temperature is right, your seeds will germinate!

    What area will my Seedballs cover?

    We would usually advise 20 seed balls per square metre, or 3-5 seed balls for a 35cm container.
