---This handmade lokta paper is made in the highlands of Nepal by rural craftspeople in an environmentally friendly process with 50% recycled content. The raw material for our select paper is the Daphne bush. It is farmed and harvested from 3-4 year old plants that are cut down and stripped of their bark. The plant is not destroyed when cut down, it regenerates from the root. The cane like stick, once its bark is removed is dried and used to heat the villager’s homes, to provide fuel for cooking and also for the production of the paper. All of the water used in the paper production is reclaimed and reused.---
*These designs are digitally drawn by me. All designs have copyright restrictions. Please contact me if you want to use them for any projects.
We design, print, score, cut, and ship all our cards from our home office. We strive for sustainability and high quality. We are currently working on our homesteading goals always focusing on living in harmony with our environment, and trying to do our part to help mother earth.
-GROWING-
The plants tolerate partial shade and need 4 hours a day of direct sunlight. Will grow to about 3'.
Germination may begin as quickly as one week or may take up to six weeks depending on your regional growing zone.
If you plant this paper in a pot, or in your garden please cover with just 1/8” of soil and keep moist until established.
This paper is the most tested seed paper stock in the country. It is tested by us, tested by the seed supplier, tested by the USDA (twice) and tested by the department of agriculture in Nepal (twice).
Some of the plants in the paper have just a 1 week germination time and some have a six week germination time. Keep watering until you see sprouts, then keep watering it regularly until the plant is established. Seedlings do not have the strength to survive even a brief drought."
We try to use all recycled materials when shipping your products. Please compost:)

How do I plant my card?
Place your card in a container with a clear lid for best results. Soak thoroughly. Seeds need sunlight for germination. Seeds can take 3 weeks - 2+ months to germinate. All seeds germinate at different rates.
Once your seeds have germinated and grown their first true leaves, plant them where you want. Either in a pot or outside if weather permits.
Do my cards come with envelopes?
Yes, all cards come with brown kraft envelopes made from recycled paper.
