Best for
Choose seed packets & eco gifts if your moment is sustainability-led brand launches and esg campaigns, council and government community engagement or conference delegate packs and trade show giveaways.
Sustainability-led brand launches and ESG campaigns
Pair a plantable seeded-paper card with a wildflower packet — the message literally blooms. Works beautifully for net-zero announcements, annual sustainability reports and B Corp communications.
Council and government community engagement
Native wildflower and bee-friendly blends resonate at verge-garden, pollinator and urban greening campaigns. Full-colour print carries council branding, safety messaging or bilingual content beautifully.
Conference delegate packs and trade show giveaways
A seed packet weighs almost nothing, posts free, and delegates genuinely keep them — the one that lives beyond the lanyard. Pair with a seeded-paper name card for a considered first impression.
Staff onboarding and wellbeing kits
Herb blends (basil, parsley, coriander) land perfectly in culture kits alongside a branded apron or ceramic pot. A small gesture that says the brand thinks about the home, not just the desk.
Client Christmas and end-of-year gifting
Australian native seed packets in foil-stamped kraft feel elegant rather than worthy. The gift that arrives, gets planted, and becomes a spring reminder of the relationship.
“We briefed Sense2 on native wildflower packets for our sustainability report launch and the team suggested plantable seeded-paper covers for the report itself. Delegates kept commenting on them all afternoon — a beautifully considered touch that matched the story we were telling.”
“Our council runs a pollinator campaign every spring and Sense2 has been our partner for three seasons now. They remember our palette, suggest fresh seed blends each year and always land the packets beautifully packed and ahead of schedule.”
“The seeded-paper Christmas cards were the quiet stars of our end-of-year gifting — clients posted photos of them sprouting on windowsills in January. Elegant rather than worthy, which is exactly the register we wanted.”

How to choose
Start with the brief, not the seed — that's the part we enjoy most. If the campaign is sustainability storytelling, native wildflowers and bee-friendly blends carry the narrative most credibly; they're Australian-grown, pollinator-supporting, and the imagery photographs beautifully across social. If the audience is office-based (staff onboarding, client gifting), herb blends — basil, parsley, coriander, chives — get planted because they're useful, not aspirational. For community and council work, a mixed wildflower blend that thrives in Australian conditions does more than any single-species packet. Format is the next decision. Classic kraft seed packets (90 x 125mm is our most-briefed size) print beautifully in full-colour digital and feel tactile in the hand. Plantable seeded paper — where the packet itself embeds wildflower seed — is the premium option: no waste, no separate packet, the whole piece goes in the soil. Seeded-paper business cards, bookmarks and tags work the same way for smaller-format campaigns. Branding method follows format. Full-colour digital print on FSC kraft gives you edge-to-edge design, gradients and photography at 250-qty and above. For brand-minimal work, 1-2 colour offset on recycled uncoated paper reads beautifully tone-on-tone. Foil stamping — rose gold, matte black, forest green — adds the considered finish that premium gifting briefs want. On seeded paper, keep artwork simple: the paper texture is part of the story. On MOQ, most seed packet briefs start at 100-250 units. Plantable seeded paper can start at 250 for custom shapes, 100 for stock rectangles and business cards. Native Australian seed blends take 2-3 days longer to source than herbs, so factor that into timelines. Always order a sample — the weight of the paper, the saturation of the print and the tactile feel of seeded paper are decisions you make in the hand, not on screen. Fast can still feel thoughtful, and 48 hours is the rhythm we work to.
Pricing guidance
Pricing rule of thumb: at 250 units with full-colour digital print, a standard kraft seed packet sits around AU$1.20-$2.20 per unit depending on seed blend (herbs at the lower end, Australian natives at the upper). Plantable seeded-paper cards sit around AU$2.40-$3.80 per unit at 250qty, dropping 25-35% at 1,000+. Foil stamping adds AU$0.40-$0.90 per unit. Offset print setup runs AU$55-$120 per colour, once-off. Bulk rollouts (5,000+) attract significantly stepped pricing — ask for a stepped quote across 250, 500, 1,000 and 5,000.

How long do custom seed packets take to produce and deliver?▾
Standard lead time is 7-12 business days from artwork approval. Core formats and stock seed blends ship on 3-5 day express. Australian native seed blends take 2-3 days longer than herbs to source. Samples dispatch within 48 hours from our Sydney warehouse, Australia-wide.
What seeds can I choose, and are they Australian-grown?▾
Yes — our core range uses Australian-grown seed. Options include native wildflowers, bee-friendly and pollinator blends, culinary herbs (basil, parsley, coriander, chives), sunflowers, poppies, forget-me-nots and tomato. For council and environmental briefs we can also source region-specific native blends on request.
What branding and print methods do you offer on seed packets?▾
Full-colour digital print is our most-briefed method on FSC kraft — edge-to-edge design, gradients and photography from 250qty. We also run 1-4 colour offset on recycled uncoated paper, foil stamping (rose gold, matte black, forest green) and plantable seeded-paper embed where the packet itself is the seed carrier.
Are the seed packets and seeded paper actually sustainable?▾
Yes — FSC-certified kraft and recycled uncoated papers are our default substrates, with lower-ink packaging and plantable seeded paper that leaves zero waste (the packet goes in the soil). Australian-grown seed supports local growers. Sustainability done credibly, not as a marketing line — that's the standard we've held for 30 years.
Can I see a sample before I order?▾
Yes. Free samples ship Australia-wide within 48 hours from our Sydney warehouse. Pre-production samples with your actual artwork are available on larger runs. The weight of the paper, saturation of the print and tactile feel of seeded paper are decisions you make in the hand — never the spec sheet alone.
