What is plantable paper?
Plantable paper is handcrafted from recycled paper using recycled fibers, integrated with seeds pressed directly into the material. Once used, just plant it in a pot or in the ground, water it and watch the magic: the seeds will sprout, giving new life to the paper.
How does plantable paper work? The steps are very simple:
-
Cut the paper into pieces, making sure that there are seeds in the parts you choose to sow.
-
Water it very well and place it in a pot with soil, covering it with a light layer of soil. If you want to plant it in the garden or on the balcony, wait until spring!
-
Water it regularly and, within a few days, you will see the first seedlings appear!
