All packets of seeds are £3.25 each
I have lusted after these seed packets for many a year so I’m now doing the next best thing to buying them. Blogging about them. The Balcony Gardener is an excellent on-line shop selling, well, you can probably guess really, gardening paraphernalia from ready-made planted containers right down to a lowly little packet of seeds. Except these little packets of seeds are far from lowly. They are the mightiest of the most mighty. I absolutely adore them all. Beautifully designed, each packet has a bold graphic repeat pattern design in bright cheery colours relating to its contents’ characteristics. You really would want to pick them all. These packets really do represent what I like most about this etailer-haven. They’re fun and approachable and most importantly got an eye for some good designed items. Below are just some of my favourite products; Half Pint Garden growing kit (more beautiful packaging), Flower Bomb (funny), Bungee seed feeder (funny) and the Bird cafe (beautiful and funny). Most gardening shops are a little off-putting especially for those with just a tiny 2x12ft balcony to call her garden but not these guys, there is something on here for everyone and every sized garden. If you don’t have time to potter yourself but want pretty window boxes, their pre-planted containers look absolutely beautiful and come in a variety of themed ‘looks’.
