The MIRRI Ritual

At MIRRI we believe that every small act of care can become a ritual - a moment to pause, breathe, and reconnect.

Every order comes with a beautiful affirmation card. Each card is printed on British wildflower seed paper, designed to be planted and grown.

When you plant your card, you’re not just sowing seeds - you’re planting your intention.

This simple ritual invites you to slow down, set an intention, and nurture it with time and care.

As your flowers grow, may they remind you that your own growth unfolds at its own pace - beautifully, naturally, and always in time.

What Is Seed Paper

Seed paper (often called plantable paper) is made from recycled cotton, paper, or wood pulp and embedded with live wildflower seeds.

When planted in soil and watered regularly, the paper biodegrades and the seeds germinate - growing into beautiful flowers that support pollinators and biodiversity.

It’s a simple, sustainable way to transform your message into something truly alive.

Planting Your Intention

  • Prepare Your Space

    Choose a pot or patch of soil that feels special to you — a place filled with light and calm energy. This is where your intention will take root.

  • Tear And Release

    Gently tear your affirmation card into smaller pieces. As you do, reflect on what you’re ready to nurture — a hope, a dream, or a quiet promise to yourself.

  • Soak With Care

    Place the pieces in water overnight. This softens the paper and begins to awaken the seeds within.

  • Plant With Purpose

    Lay the soaked pieces under a thin layer of soil (around ¼ inch deep). As you cover them, speak or hold your intention in mind — words of belief, kindness, or trust.

  • Water And Wait

    Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged. With each watering, imagine you’re tending to your own growth — patiently, lovingly, and without rush.

  • Watch It Bloom

    In time, your affirmation will return to you in wildflower form — a living reminder of what you planted, both in the earth and within yourself.

Planting Tips

When to Plant

For best results, plant your seed paper from March–April or late September, ready for blooms the following spring.

Prepare Your Paper

Tear the sheet into small pieces before planting. This helps light and moisture reach the seeds, increasing germination.

Choose Your Growing Medium

Seeds love nutrient-rich soil or compost — peat-free is best.

If planting in a wild area, gently loosen the soil first to help roots establish.

Plant Your Paper

Soak your torn seed paper until saturated.

Place it under a thin layer (about ¼ inch) of soil or compost and cover lightly.

Water generously, without waterlogging. Continue watering daily until shoots appear, then reduce to twice a week.

Important: Don’t allow your seed paper to dry out — consistent moisture is key to germination.

Watch the Seeds Grow

Soon you’ll see tiny green shoots reaching for the sun.

Each bloom will be unique — some may appear quickly, others may rest until the following year.

This is part of nature’s rhythm — a reminder that growth takes time.

Wildflower meadows are not only beautiful but low-maintenance, offering months of colour and a haven for bees and butterflies.

A Ritual of Growth

As your wildflowers bloom, let them remind you: patience is part of the process, and everything - including you - will bloom in its own perfect time.
