Wildlife Collection

Six beautifully-illustrated boxes, each with a unique wildflower mix to attract garden wildlife. Perfect for nature-lovers and easy to scatter and grow. The collection can also be split for individual gifts for children, teachers and colleagues. Great for gardeners too!

Each box contains 6 seed balls, each with careful selection of wildflower seeds to attract bees, butterflies, birds, bats, beetles and hedgehogs. They’ll work well in garden beds, window boxes and balcony pots. One box will cover 1-2 pots or use three boxes for 1 square metre in a garden. An instruction card is included in each box.

Each ball is made from a mixture of native wildflower seeds (approximately 30 seeds per ball, see below for mix details), clay, peat-free compost and chilli powder, which together help to protect the seeds during early growth. They’re incredibly easy to use – simply scatter on top of soil or compost (no digging required!), water well (to help initiate growth) and nature will do the rest.

  • 100% peat-free, UK-made seed balls
  • Boxes made from recycled card
  • No digging required – just scatter, water and let nature take over
  • Scatter from Autumn through to the end of Spring – wildflower seeds love a chilly spell!

Important note:
With more than 97% of UK wildflower meadows lost in the past decades, each scatter really matters! This small set can help bring colour, life and biodiversity back to your outdoor space and make a real difference.

What's Included

We make the balls at our Seedball factory in London, from a mixture of UK wildflower seeds, clay, peat-free compost and chilli powder.

The outer clay protects the seeds from ants, birds and mice, and once sufficient water has permeated the clay, the seeds inside begin to germinate – helped along by the nutrients and minerals contained within the ball. The chilli powder continues to deter slugs and snails while the seed ball slowly degrades and the seeds sprout.

Wildflowers are naturally slow to grow and the balls can take 2-4 weeks to begin to sprout. Some will flower in the first year and others may not flower until the second year, but the display should keep getting better each year! The more they are initially watered, the quicker they will be to start to grow, although they will be ok to leave them to the rain to water them as well 🙂

See our FAQ page for more details on how to get the best from your seed balls.

Each seed box measures 5.8cm x 3.7cm x 1.5cm

What are Seedballs? How do they work?

What is a Seedball?

A ball made from seeds, clay, peat-free compost and chili powder.

Why use Seedballs?

The ball prevents the seeds from being a tasty lunch for birds and insects, thereby increasing the chances of your flowers growing. Plus they’re super easy to use, no digging and no expert knowledge needed!

What's in the tin?

There are 20 balls in each tin, and around 30 seeds per ball.

How do I use Seedballs?

Throw onto soil or compost in a garden bed or planter in Spring or Autumn, leaving at least 10cm between each ball. Your Seedball has everything it needs to grow and, once the ball becomes moist and the temperature is right, your seeds will germinate!

What area will my Seedballs cover?

We would usually advise 20 seed balls per square metre, or 3-5 seed balls for a 35cm container.

Conservation

All seed is responsibly sourced in the UK from Flora Locale accredited suppliers, we only ever use peat-free compost and our steel tins are manufactured in London (with the help of a solar farm on the factory roof).
