Bee Bombs are seed balls made from clay, compost, and seeds for flowers that benefit bees other pollinators.
Bee Bombs are easy to plant because they are not actually buried in soil, just placed or thrown on the soil surface,
Anywhere you would like to grow beautiful flowering plants and support these important insect populations.
The clay protects the seeds from insects and birds.
The compost provides organic matter and nutrients. When conditions are right (water, sunlight),
The seed ball will break down and the seeds will germinate.
Over time, they will grow into plants and flowers that provide habitat and food for pollinators.
Spring and Fall are the best times to “plant” them, to mimic what happens when these plants naturally produce seeds.
These seed balls are intended for home garden use, not for restoration projects or for undisturbed ecosystems –
In that case, local plants native to that specific area should be used. We are happy to help you locate native plant seeds for your area

ordered bee & butterfly bombs for a Mommy-to-Bee-themed baby shower. My niece is an environmentalist & these were perfect as part of the Thank You bags for guests. So cute with bees & butterflies stamped on them. The sellers are Awesome, delivery was within a couple days of ordering. I will be using the extras myself to attract pollinators, & I will definitely order again from PlantablesLLC. Thank you so much to the owners for all their help!!!
Pretty wrapping and so cute for gifts. The seed bombs are big. Perfect for Holiday gifts!
Bought these as a birthday gift and they are adorable! love the very thoughtful packaging (starch packing that dissolved in water) and a kind thank you note. i look forward to continuing my patronage!
Just precious! They haven't been tested yet, but my mother plans to seed the bank across from their little stream with them. Lovely!
The perfect compliment to my growing garden!
These are just too cute! I bought these for my sister who has recently become quite the plant lady and gardener, and she absolutely loved them. She can’t wait for spring to be able to put them in her garden. Will definitely be purchasing more for my own garden!
My mom just planted these and they're growing so fast! They're such an adorable, fun gift. Obviously we've all been home a ton...and these are just so great as an easy project to make your surroundings gorgeous.
smaller than I anticipated, but that's my fault. they are super cute and very we packaged. obviously, I don't know how well they grow since I just got them and they are a gift, but will probably get some for myself in the future.
Perfect extra gift for my mother who loves to garden and watch her plants grow. Cant wait for her to plant these. Such a unique idea. Packaged amazingly well. Thank you.
I bought these as a gift, so I haven't tried to plant them yet. But they look lovely. Beautifully packaged with a sweet note from the seller. They are smaller than I thought they would be, but clearly I didn't read the dimensions well in the description. Still very happy with my purchase and excited to give them as a gift!
