Plantable Seed Paper Bookmarks
Make every read a little greener with our plantable seed bookmarks. Designed to leave a lasting impression long after the final page, these bookmarks are printed on our signature wildflower paper, handmade in the UK and embedded with a pollinator-friendly mix of native seeds.
Ideal for eco-conscious businesses, publishers, charities, schools, and creatives looking for a beautiful, sustainable way to share their story. Whether used as promotional giveaways, educational tools, or product inserts, these seeded bookmarks are zero-waste and full of life.
Each one is printed on handmade British seed paper crafted at our historic paper mill, home to over 200 years of papermaking history, and operated by the Apsley Paper Trail charity.
How It Works
Once your recipient has enjoyed the bookmark, it can be planted to grow a mix of native wildflowers. It’s a beautiful way to promote sustainability and connect your message to something meaningful.
To give it the best chance to bloom:
-
Tear into smaller pieces
-
Soak briefly in water
-
Plant under a thin layer of soil (about 1/4 inch)
-
Keep moist and place in a sunny spot
-
Germination usually begins within 10–14 days during spring or autumn
Please note: As with all living things, results may vary depending on growing conditions.
