| The Pocket GardenOnline Store | Home | The Pocket Garden What is it?The pocket garden allows you to give a loved one or friend a gift that will become a permanent reminder. Supplied in a sealed leak-proof bag the Pocket Garden contains specially formulated compost and seeds that once cut open, just require water to germinate allowing them to grow a beautiful houseplant. Our expanding collection of Pocket Gardens provide a great gift for any occasion or even a great way to grow the products yourself.
For growing tips please have a look at the bottom of this page.
| Growing TipsWe have invested a lot of time in ensuring that the Pocket Gardens provide an easy and rewarding growing experience. The make-up of the Pocket Garden is straightforward, consisting of compost and seed to which water is added. The compost is organically accredited and was the growing medium used by Birmingham City Council when they won the Gold Medal at Chelsea Flower Show in 2000. All our seeds are sourced from reputable seed houses and, where applicable are organic.
Therefore when water is added you have the three ingredients - compost, seed and water - to grow a plant.
However we have found that the most common reasons for lack of success are:
1) Lack of water initially . Ensure the compost is damp and remember water is taken up by the compost at the outset.
2) Overwatering after above . Waterlogged seed will not germinate and, after germination, seedlings will die through excess moisture.
3). Leaving a Pocket Garden in a cold place; for example on a cold windowsill particularly behind closed curtains. Cold causes "damping off".
4) Keeping a Pocket Garden with insufficient light.
5) Irregular attention.
