Plant Our Hangtag

Moms, do you know that the hangtag that attached in each Baby Feits t-shirt can actually grow flowers?
Baby Feits tag is made from plantable paper that is not only totally biodegradable, it is also contains mix of wild flower seeds. You put the hangtag in soil, water it thoroughly and wait for the seeds to germinate! Here's the steps how to plant our hangtag:


Here are the steps:


1. Soak the paper in water overnight
2. Prepare your pot. Fill it with 2/3 full with good soil
3. Take our tag paper and tear it into small pieces, about 1 inch. Cover the soil in the prepared pot with the paper, and add more soil on top of it
4. After planting the paper in your pot, give it a good soak. You want the paper and the soil to be nicely damp. Place in a sunny position and ensure the plantable paper is kept moist 
5. During the first 10 days, keep the paper moist at all times
5. Once sprouts appear, continue to keep the paper moist but be careful not to overwater. Once sturdy plants appear, water as needed


Here's what the pot looks like after we plant the paper:
