Insect Balls Bee & Beneficial Organic

Sale price$19.95

Lil'Bit Bee Seed Balls use a technique that is thousands of years old. A mix of natural clay to protect flower seeds from insects and birds and soil/compost to provide all the nutrients needed for germination. When conditions are right (water, sunlight), the seed ball will break down and the seeds will sprout into a mix of herbs and flowers providing habitat and food for all pollinators - native bees, flies, beetles, butterflies, moths and birds!


Bee Seed Balls should not actually be buried in soil, just placed (or dropped) on the soil surface. Or, you can pop them on top of dirt in a pot if you prefer.

Let nature take its course, and the seeds will germinate when conditions are good.

Bee patient - some of these plants may not bloom the first year, but will reward you with more blooms in subsequent years so hang in there!

You will not see a meadow of flowers - the balls are hand mixed and rolled and shouldn't be used for mass plantings as each ball only contains a small amount of seeds.
