What is Sprout Pencil?
It’s the world’s first and only patented plantable pencil that grows into vegetables, flowers and herbs when you’ve finished using them.
Instead of throwing them out when they become too small to use, just plant the Sprout Pencils into soil, and water – the capsule cleverly dissolves and will sprout into anything from cherry tomato plants, sage and basil, to carnations and sunflowers. It’s a great way of demonstrating sustainability and encouraging people to think about recycling, innovation in natural materials and the environment.
