Manuka Seed Paper

How to grow your Manuka seed paper...

  • Find a small plant pot with drainage holes.

  • Fill pot with some fine potting mix, make sure the soil is slightly compressed as this will allow for more moisture.

  • Place the Peace of Wild seed paper on top of the soil.
    (lightly sprinkle with soil do not cover completely)

  • Water the seed paper and soil, keep damp & do not let it dry out.

  • Keep in a sunny, warm position inside, window sills are a great spot!
WATER EVERYDAY
&
make sure the seed paper doesn't dry out!
(If the seed paper does dry out the success rate of a healthy Manuka seedling will be greatly reduced)

  • If looked after properly you should start to see seedlings in weeks 2-3, however it can take up to 4 weeks for the Manuka seeds to germinate.

  • When the seeds have germinated, water gently or with a fine mist. (they are very fragile & you dont want to damage/bury them in the soil)

  • After a few months of watering and sunshine the seedlings should be well established and be ready to transplant to a bigger pot or into your garden.

  •  You can then either transplant all the seedlings to a bigger pot or you can remove each individual seedling to grow in lots of small pots
    (these established native Manuka seedlings in a cute pot would make great gifts!)

We have thoroughly tested our Manuka Seed Paper so as long as it gets lot of light, water, and attention, you'll have some beautiful Manuka plants growing in your home in no time!

Although (as any plant owner knows) plants can sometimes just be plain dramatic and they will not always grow the way we want them to. If after a few months you are getting 0 results, drop us an email info@peaceofwild.co.nz and we will send you a replacement!

Alternatively if you don't have a garden or don't want to plant it, it would make a great gift for an avid gardener, or just chuck it outside and see what happens! Its fully compostable and biodegredable and you never know it might just grow!
