Seed ball recipe:

1 part seeds*
3 parts fairly fine compost (may need to sift out large twigs)
5 parts terra cotta (red) clay in powder form
  (can be found in ceramic and pottery supply stores)
 
Add water as needed to create a ball that will stay together without being too sticky.

Dispersal:

  • Toss seed balls into the area you wish to seed.  They do not need to be buried.  They will simply “lay dormant”, waiting until the right amount of rain falls.
     
  • If you do not plan to broadcast them immediately after making them, allow seed balls to dry thoroughly before storing them.

*Seed balls at the Monster Bash were made with wildflower seeds from Native American Seed,
a family owned and operated business located near Junction, Texas. The mix selected was 
Texas-Oklahoma Native Roadside Mix.” Visit their website for more information about the wildflowers contained in this mix, along with other valuable planting and care information.
