Growing paper is something very special. The texture and content are very different from normal paper and the printing process is also different from normal printing paper. Here is an overview of the most important facts about growing paper:  No bright white paper: each growing paper can have a slightly different colouring and is usually not bright white like normal paper. This often gives it a rustic and natural look. Each seed gives a different look: even within the same grammage, the colours are different. For example, the 250 gsm paper with forget-me-not seeds has a different look and feel than the 250 gsm growing paper with the wildflower mix. If you want to know the difference within a grammage before finalising your order, contact us and we will be happy to send you a sample.  Limited printing possibilities: Unlike conventional paper, not every design can be printed on growing paper. Please read our design tips before placing an order.  Design deviations: Designs on growing paper are not always perfectly centred and may have minimal deviations (mm range). This is due to the nature of the seeded paper. However, these minor irregularities add to the handmade and natural charm of the paper. Each growing paper is unique: Due to the production method, each product made from growing paper can be unique. This is because the paper may contain remnants of recycled waste paper, such as leftover colour, leftover letters and other residues. These irregularities give each card an individual character.
