Pencil with a flower pot behind it and on a blue plant stand

Sprout Pencils. Sustainable pencils that grow into your favorite herbs, vegetables or flowers. Each pencil contains seeds to be planted once the pencil has been used up. Simply plant the pencil stub in soil and care for it as you would any seedling. Water, sun and a little love.https://amzn.to/39E4IRt

I used a small clay pot with potting soil and placed the seed end of the pencil stub directly into the pot. Easy as that.

So easy in fact, I wasn’t sure I did it right. Skeptical that I would would yield any coriander from this project, I watered it along with the other deck plants and didn’t give it too much thought.

Imagine my delight to see a small sprout appear a week later!

Kids especially will love seeing the pencil they used for countless homework hours turn into a live growing plant. Choose your package based on your favorites.
