Heart To Plant Birthday Personalised Card

A cute and quirky birthday card to give, not just a card but a gift of a little seed paper heart you can plant.

A handmade card with a difference with an artisan paper heart you can plant and watch grow within a few days. You can choose to have the card personalised with a name. If you don’t choose the personalised option it will be printed with the message ‘Happy Birthday’.

To grow the paper heart, fill a pot with a good potting compost, place your heart onto the soil and cover with a thin layer of soil, around 3-4 mm. Water gently and regularly to keep the paper moist until seedlings sprout and keep it somewhere light and warm. Don’t let the paper dry out and is moist all the time, but don’t over water either. If you let it dry out it will reduce the chance of growth. Once the seedlings start to grow and are large enough, you can transfer them to a larger pot or into your garden.

The hearts are made from 100% recycled paper dyed with all-natural, vegetable based pigments and encapsulated with a mix of seeds.The seeds a re mix of Flax, Sweet William, Poppy, Forget-Me-Not, Wallflower, Candytuft, Baby Blue Eyes, English Daisy and Black-Eyed Susan.

The paper is biodegradable and will breaks down easily when exposed to bacteria, animals, insects, and even weather conditions.

The heart is mounted on an FSC friendly card too.

You can now choose to send this card direct to the recipient, which is perfect if you are overseas, in a hurry or want to save on some postage. Cards chosen with this option will include the message exactly as specified in the text box provided, and sent in an envelope directly to the contact name and delivery address provided.
