Choose wildflower, sunflower or cress seeds
Choose the seed type that suits your guests and celebration. Our seeds come from UK suppliers, and sowing instructions are printed on the back of every packet.
Wildflower seeds: Each packet contains over 50 seeds from a UK native wildflower mix. A lovely choice for guests who enjoy flowers and gardening. When flowering, the plants can provide food for pollinating insects.
Sunflower seeds: Each packet contains approximately 8 seeds. Choose these for guests who would enjoy growing sunflowers through the warmer months.
Cress seeds: Each packet contains over 50 seeds. Cress is a useful choice for an indoor growing activity, and the grown cress can be harvested to eat.
Please select your preferred seed type from the available options before adding your order to the basket.
We do remove sunflower seeds if it isn’t the right time of year to sow.
How to personalise your birthday seed packets
Choose your design, pack size and seed type. Then enter the birthday name and age in the personalisation section before adding your selection to your basket.
For example: “Please print: Oliver, age 7.”
Check names and spelling carefully before placing your order. If you would like different wording or have a special request, please contact us before ordering so we can confirm what is possible.
Small birthday gifts for businesses and events
Birthday seed packets also make thoughtful additions to workplace celebrations. Include one in an employee’s birthday card, add them to staff birthday gift bags or use them as table favours at a company anniversary celebration.
Party planners, hospitality businesses and community groups can include them in birthday event packages or guest gift bags.

Plastic-free paper seed packets
The seeds are supplied loose inside recyclable kraft paper envelopes, with no inner plastic sachet. Each packet measures 67 × 98 mm and has growing instructions on the reverse.
We pack orders using recyclable materials, including cardboard boxes, recycled tissue paper and recycled kraft tape where needed.
When should the seeds be planted?
You can give seed packets as birthday gifts throughout the year. The best time to sow depends on the seed type and growing conditions.
Wildflower mixes are generally sown in spring or early autumn, while sunflower sowing is usually started in spring. Cress can be grown indoors throughout the year in suitable conditions. Always follow the instructions on your packet.
For more growing advice, read the RHS guide to sowing a wildflower patch.
