Send some birthday love with our colorful Happy Birthday plantable card.
Our greeting cards are designed and made in Australia using 100% recycled handmade paper with embedded Swan river daisy seeds. When the card is planted, the paper will compost away to leave only flowers. The card can be potted or sown directly into the garden soil. Note that growth success is dependent on the paper being kept moist (and therefore soft) until after the seeds have germinated.
Printed with planting instructions at the back.
Blank inside for your own personalised message.
105 x 148mm when folded.
Includes brown 100% recycled envelope.
Packed in a biodegradable cellophane bag for protection.

Step 1: Soak your card in water until soft. |
Step 2: Place it on seed raising mix (in a pot or straight in the ground). |
Step 3: Lightly cover it with more mix, water it and keep it moist. |
Step 4: Be patient! The germination should take 7 to 21 days. |
Note that growth success is dependent on the paper being kept moist (and therefore soft) until after the seeds have germinated. Many seeds are embedded in the thickness of the paper and if it dries and hardens, the shoots of the newly germinating seeds will not be able to push through.
It will take 2 to 3 months to see your card turn into an array of beautiful blue, purple, white and pink daisies.
Swan River Daisy (Brachycome iberidifolia) is a native flower Indigenous to Western and central Australia, it prefers light to medium soils in an open, sunny position but will tolerate shade. It is a very hardy, annual plant that is drought and frost resistant. It will grow in most regions of Australia. It grows to a height of 0.2m with a spread of 0.3m. The flowers are white, blue, purple or pink and daisy-like, appearing in summer, giving a vibrant display of eye-catching color. They are ideal for containers or rockeries.
