The world's first colouring and lead pencils that grow!
These high-quality and sustainably harvested cedar pencils have a clever water-activated seed capsule in their tip.
If you are in the habit of chewing on the end of your pencil the sprout will probably activate and dissolve in your mouth. We think this is a great tool to break yourself of that habit. On a lighter note, the sprout is entirely non-toxic!
The seed capsule tip will not work as an eraser, though you're welcome to try!
**This pack contains six coloured pencils and two graphite pencils
- Coriander
- Thyme
- Forget-me-not
- Chia
- Daisy
- Sage
- Basil
- Carnation
..........................................
Transforming a Sprout pencil into flowers, herbs or vegetables is a fun way to make sustainability visible to others. And inspire them to make changes in their own lives.

So when you've finally shaved your writing instrument down to an unusable length, simply flip that pencil round and stick it in the ground.
With a little love and tenderness (water and sunlight) your scrumptious seed will rise from the soil like a photosynthetic phoenix and the remaining pencil acts as a helpful labelled planting marker.
A wonderful unusal eco gift for anyone with a least one green thumb !
