Love Grows...

Surfing through some green friendly wedding prep website, I found an invite company that specializes in eco-friendly wedding invitations that was DIY (which was important since we did Dutch and English versions). Almost all of their invitations are tree free, 100% post consumer recycled papers and we fell in love with the Seedling invite which is plantable paper with embedded Cosmo seeds. Since we have a lot of the paper left over from our wedding, we thought that we should plant our paper and see what happens. We planted them throughout our backyard but due to the valley's heat, nothing seems to have sprouted (as of yet). However, we did plant some in a planter where it gets a lot of shade and to our merry surprise, they started growing! We can't believe that the invites are growing and can't wait to see what flowers grow! :)
