Sow and Tell

Store it. Sow it. Then tell everyone.

Sow and Tell is the seed sower's starter kit, Burgon & Ball from end to end. The Seed Packet Storage Tin in Mushroom to keep your collection out of the shoebox, the RHS Dibber in Boron Green to put every seed and bulb at the depth it asked for, and Collector Gloves in Olive Stripe for the hands in between. Three things, one very organised spring.

Picture the first warm weekend of September. Tin open on the bench, packets filed by month, the long compartment holding the beans and sunflowers that never fit anywhere else. Dibber in hand, engraved depth gauge doing the measuring so your knuckles do not have to. Gloves on, seedlings in, done before lunch. Then the part nobody can stop you doing, which is telling people what you have sown.

For the gardener who treats a seed order like a reading list. Or a present for the one who has just discovered seed catalogues and will not be stopped.

Bundled, you save 10% on buying the three separately.

What's in the bundle

• Seed Packet Storage Tin, Mushroom: powder-coated steel with leather handles and two clasps. Three compartments, including a long one for oversized packets, plus monthly index cards. Part of the Collector range.
• Dibber RHS, Boron Green: rust-resistant boron steel (80% recycled) with an engraved depth gauge. FSC certified white ash handle. RHS endorsed, 25 year guarantee.
• Collector Gloves, Olive Stripe: padded palm, two-way stretch mesh, elasticated wrist, ric rac trim. One size fits most.

Materials & Care

• Seed tin: keep dry and store somewhere cool. Wipe clean. Seeds last longer when the tin lives inside, not in the shed.
• Dibber: knock the soil off and wipe dry after use. A drop of camellia oil on the steel now and then keeps it bright.
• Gloves: machine wash at 30°C. Air dry.
