Oh Christmas Tree – plantable Christmas greetings card

Nothing says Christmas like a decorated tree in the house – do you know where the tradition came from? It dates back thousands of years to when pagans brought fir trees into temples, and it was Prince Albert that made it popular in the UK when he brought a tree into Windsor Castle.

This Seasons Greetings festive card depicts a watercolour illustration of a Christmas Tree surrounded by gifts and set on a backdrop of pretty green snowflakes. Printed on our UK made poppy seed paper. After Christmas simply plant this card and watch it grow into a patch of poppies.

It is possible to celebrate Christmas without feeling the guilt of excess and waste. In fact, our cards allow you to celebrate this special time of year with friends and family and have a positive impact on our world and its precious resources. Not only are our cards fully biodegradable, they can actually be planted to create a flourishing mini meadow. Embedded with a mix of 12 different native wildflower seeds and various grasses, our cards create a balanced meadow loved by bees and other pollinators - giving our stripey friends a much needed helping hand.

These Christmas card packs contain 5 plantable cards and 5 recycled kraft envelopes hand tied in a bundle with jute twine.

Handmade in the UK using paper made from pre-consumer waste cotton, our cards are the perfect choice for those seeking sustainable, eco-friendly stationery, that won’t end up as landfill waste.

Your loved ones can simply plant, water and watch their cards bloom into a flourishing mini meadow. Sustainable gifting that keeps on giving.

Each biodegradeable, plantable greeting card is a6 in size, and comes with its own recycled brown Kraft envelope.

The Oh Christmas Tree collection includes plantable gift tags and make-your-own cracker kits - available for sale separately - for a fully themed and coordinated Christmas.
