Wildflower Cards!
Someone gave my daughter these cards to plant the other day! They'll turn into lovely wildflowers. Hopefully. My thumb isn't the greenest but it seemed like a cool thing. The seeds are embedded in the cards. You tear the cards, I had to cut, I couldn't tear it, and then you plant them in the ground, and water well. And maybe, just maybe, in a few weeks we'll have a mosaic of beautiful wild flowers.

I saw Sunday and thought what? Holidays always do that to me.
ReplyDeleteI had one of those cards. I think it came from the funeral home when my mom died. I was really hoping the seeds would germinate, but it wasn't meant to be. Hope you have better luck.
I've done wildflowers quite often, most will come back the next year. Be prepared, some may be invasive!! Look forward to a photo....they will be gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteFun! I love planting seeds and seeing what happens. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great little gift!! It will keep on giving and remind her of when she received the cards!
ReplyDeleteWow ~ that is a neat idea!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful idea! Best of luck!
ReplyDeleteI have seen the cards before but never used them! That was a sweet gift. You will have to post some photos when they bloom. :)
ReplyDeletevery cool my bro and his girlfriend gave us one of these cards
ReplyDeletethats a lovely idea giving seeds instead of a bunch of flowers which wilt after a few days :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great gift. I hope the seeds germinate for you.
ReplyDeleteCool idea! You'll have to let us know how they turn out!
ReplyDeleteI received a packet of wildflower seeds from our realtor on Friday. I hope yours and mine germinate and that we each have a beautiful field of colour.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful idea! I'll keep my fingers and toes crossed for you that you get flowers! I don't have a green thumb either, so don't feel bad. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! Happy Memorial Day to you!

ReplyDeleteWow. Is that ever clever! Keep us posted on how they turn out!
ReplyDeleteI have received them as shower favors. I never had any luck with them. Then I got one the other day on a box of cereal. I haven't planted it yet.
ReplyDeleteI hope you have good luck with yours.

What an interesting idea. I've not yet seen the cards but they intrigue me. I'm anxious to hear your report. I hope you have a great day. Blessings...Mary
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun way to plant! You'll have a beautiful garden.
ReplyDeleteThat would be really cool to have some wild flowers around the house!
ReplyDeleteI was away in my parents village with limited internet access and could not do much with my blog and visiting other blogs. Hope you are having a nice long weekend.
I bought cards like these when my mother passed away. They were inscribed and sent to friends and family in her memory. Flowers were her favorite thing.
ReplyDeleteThat's such a great idea! And a mosaic of beautiful wild flowers - what a beautiful thought.
ReplyDeleteLove wildflowers. Looking forward to seeing how these turn out. Hope you had a great Memorial Day weekend.
