What are Beebombs? Beebombs are handmade wildflower seedballs. We make them from sheltering clay and sifted top soil, packed with 1000s of seeds from native wildflower species. Beebombs need no gardening skill and can be scattered straight onto open ground at any time of the year. Once scattered, you don’t need to water or tend your Beebombs. I tend to say ‘cleared ground’ as wildflowers are hardy and adaptable but slow growers. This means that they can be out-competed by faster growing grasses and perennial weeds at the critical early stages, so straight onto soil is best if possible. The soil will help your Beebombs germinate and the clay will protect them as they dissipate. Lots of sun and rain is of course important, as is time. |

How to scatter your Beebombs Our Wildflower Beebombs need no gardening skill, no tilling or sowing in the traditional sense. The seeds are combined with nurturing sifted soil and sheltering local clay to protect them from predators. Just throw your Beebombs onto cleared soil and await the blossom of colour and the return of native bee and butterfly species. Beebombs can be scattered at anytime of year but Autumn and Spring are optimum. |
