arrive, you will first need to examine the processing
time and then figure out the shipping
time. Processing time refers to the time it takes for us to order your
item(s) in from our suppliers and are different for every product and are
outlined on each product page. Once your order is
shipped from our store, the shipping time will depend on your chosen shipping
method and how far away you live from our location in London, Ontario
(generally the further away you are, and the more remote your shipping address
is, the longer it will take for your parcel to be delivered). For more information on shipping services and

Due to high temperatures during the
summer months, there will be no guarantee on any candles, chocolates or candies
shipped by regular ground. If you order these items between May 1st and
September 30th, we recommend that you upgrade from regular ground
shipping to ensure that your order will arrive quickly during these hot months.
Plantable Paper
Plantable paper is a biodegradable eco-paper that is made with
post-consumer materials (no trees harmed for this paper!) and embedded
with seeds. When the paper is planted in a pot of soil, the seeds grow
and the paper composts away. All that is left behind is flowers, herbs
or vegetables and no waste. It's easy to plant and grow, and below we'll
show you examples of photos taken by our customers.
Botanical PaperWorks is both the manufacturer of plantable paper and
the designer and printer of plantable paper products such as wedding
invitations, favors, memorial products, birth announcements, greeting
cards, journals and so much more. All of the products are on this site
so that you can browse and shop.

How To Plant Plantable Paper

some good potting soil

a sunny corner
Step 1 - Prepare your pot
Fill your pot 2/3 full with good potting soil. Tamp down the soil and
add more if necessary. You want the pot to be firmly full, but not
packed. The paper can be planted indoors or outside, so you get to
choose according to the temperature and conditions at the time of
planting (we don't recommend planting outside if it's blizzarding or
desert-hot!).
Step 2 - Plant the paper
Take your plantable paper and tear it into small pieces, about 1 inch.
Cover the soil in the prepared pot with the paper. It's okay if the
paper overlaps. Spread a 1/2 inch layer of soil over the plantable paper
pieces and tamp down gently.
Step 3 - Water during germination
After planting the paper in your pot, give it a good soak. You want the
paper and the soil to be nicely damp but not swimming in water. During
the first 10 days, keep the paper moist at all times. The water is
necessary for germination.
Step 4 - Care after germination
On sprouts appear, continue to keep the paper moist but be careful not
to overwater. Once sturdy plants appear, water as needed. Here's what
the pot looks like after planting a greeting card:

And here's what the pot looked like a week later:

Step 5 - Enjoy the flowers
Once the flowers (or herbs or vegetables) start to blossom, enjoy them
in the pot or cut them and place in a decorative vase like we did here:
