How Seed Bombs Work

Seed bombs are a simple and natural way to plant wildflowers that support bees, butterflies, and other pollinators.

Each seed bomb contains a blend of wildflower seeds, soil, and clay. The clay protects the seeds from birds and helps hold moisture until the seeds are ready to grow.

When rain or watering softens the clay, the seeds begin to germinate and grow into wildflowers.

Quick Answers

How to Plant Your Seed Bombs

1️⃣ Choose a sunny location
Wildflowers grow best in areas that receive plenty of sunlight.

2️⃣ Place or toss the seed bomb onto soil
Simply place it on the ground or gently press it into loose soil. No digging is required.

3️⃣ Water or let nature do the work
Rainfall will slowly break down the clay and activate the seeds. If conditions are dry, you can lightly water the area.

4️⃣ Watch the garden grow
Within a few weeks, small seedlings should begin to appear depending on weather and soil conditions.
