Paper Potter is an award winning wooden tool that enables you to make seedling pots from old newspapers. Newspaper pots can be planted in the garden as they are biodegradable, and the new roots will grow through the newspaper as it rots away. Paper Potter is simple to use and ideal for use by the whole family. Children have lots of fun using Paper Potter and it's a great way to get them involved in sustainable living. Making paper pots is an eco friendly option and saves you money too!
Paper Potter is made from FSC wood and is presented in an unbleached recycled cardboard box which is printed with full instructions.
