Colouring Pencils (Plantable Seed) - 2 Packs of 10 each | ONEarth

Colouring pencils rolled from recycled paper instead of painted wood, each one carrying a seed capsule at the blunt end. When a pencil gets too short to hold, it is planted rather than binned. Two packs of ten make this a practical pick for classroom supplies, art kits and birthday return gifts.

Key Features

• Recycled paper bodies in place of painted wooden barrels
• Seed capsule at the end of every pencil
• Assorted seeds across the set: brinjal, basil, marigold and mogra
• Plastic-free kraft paper box that can go into paper recycling
• Suits school kits, workshops, return gifts and corporate giveaways

Materials

• Recycled paper pencil body
• Seed capsule
• Recyclable kraft paper box

How to Use

Colour with them exactly as you would with any pencil. Once a pencil is too short to hold comfortably, push the seed end into a pot or garden bed, cover it with a little soil and water it. The paper breaks down and the seed germinates.

Product Details

• Quantity: 2 packs of 10 pencils each
• Body: recycled paper
• Seeds included: brinjal, basil, marigold, mogra
• Storage: keep dry before use, since the body is paper rather than wood

Good to Know

• Damp storage can soften the paper barrel or start the seed early, so keep the box away from humidity.
• Germination depends on soil, water and season, as with any seed.

FAQs

Do they sharpen like normal pencils?

Yes, with a standard sharpener. Work gently, as the paper barrel is softer than wood.

Which seed is in which pencil?

Seeds are assorted across the set, so a pack includes a mix of brinjal, basil, marigold and mogra rather than one type throughout.

What if I do not want to plant them?

They still work as ordinary colouring pencils; planting the stub is optional.
