Sustainable Wildflower Memorial Favours (containing your loved one's ashes)
The Sussex Seed Balls Sustainable Memorial Favours, using your loved one's ashes, are perfect for your special memorial event.
Sussex Seed Balls Sustainable Memorial Favours
A beautiful & floral box containing two hand-made wildflower seed balls for your guest to take home with them, made with your loved one's ashes. They can then plant these in their garden between March & November, in a planter or in a window box, and remember the one who has passed, as their wildflowers grow.
The balls contain a mixture of UK native wildflower seeds, perfectly at home in our British climate, and specifically chosen to attract bees & butterflies. They also contain peat-free compost, clay powder, chilli powder (to keeps birds & insects away, until the flowers have grown) & your loved one's ashes. That's it; no chemicals & no unnecessary ingredients.
The boxes have full planting instructions on them & may be recycled after use, or even reused; it's up to you.
What Happens Next
After you place your order:
- We will send you a postal pack, with everything you will need to send your loved one's ashes to us
- Send us up to 50g of your loved one's ashes, using the postal pack we send you; see the “Posting ashes - what are the rules?” page of our website for full details; we recommend using a Royal Mail tracked & signed-for delivery service (e.g. Special Delivery). This maximum of 50g of ashes remains the same, however many bags of seed balls you order, as Royal Mail only allows this amount to be sent in the post
- If you have asked us to collect your loved one’s ashes from you, we will aim to be in contact with you, within 24 hours of your order
Personalisation
For that extra special touch, your favours can be personalised with a name, image, &/or date of event. We have two options for personalisation:
1) Your details will be printed on sustainable & matching labels, which will then be carefully applied to the product.
2) We will order bespoke boxes, with your personalisation information printed onto the boxes.
If you would like to choose one of the personalisation options, simply add the required option, as well as the required number of seed ball boxes.
Flower Varieties
This is a UK native wildflower variety mix to be planted between March & November. It is suitable for all soil types, with different seed varieties in the mix, favouring different conditions. Your flowers will establish themselves in their first year, and reach their best in their second or third years, given good growing conditions.
Please note that seed mix varieties are subject to availability & flower growth is not guaranteed. Seed mix will cover approximately 1m2 per ball.
