Do not consume. Store in cool, dry conditions.InstructionsScatter seed balls, approx. 10cm apart, onto clear (not too overgrown) areas between Spring & Autumn. Also great for pots or borders, they like a sunny/partial sunny position. Plant whole on top of soil and water. Wildflowers grow best in low nutrient soil. If planting in Autumn, cover seed balls over with a thin layer of soil for extra protection. Planting in SpringThe annual species will flower the year planted from mid/late spring through summer. The perennial species will flower the following year from spring onwards, along with some of the annuals which should have self seeded from previous season.Planting in AutumnBoth annuals and perennials will start to germinate from spring onwards of the following year.For all types of wildflower seed balls, allow the growth to die back after flowering before clearing the area. They will then have the chance to self seed.Your seed balls can be left alone and once the conditions are right they will start to germinate. To help with germination, from spring onwards (particularly during dry periods), water regularly. Without rain/water the seed bombs will not disperse the seeds preventing growth.Wildflowers will develop at different times and can take 2-6 weeks to germinate during growing season.
