Sharpen, Write, Plant, Repeat: "Seed of a Pen" by Zeev Zohar

A great companion to a Bloomin' Flower Card or Grow-A-Note Recycled Cards, the "Seed of a Pen" (which is actually a pencil -- go figure) has a seed embedded in the top. After wearing the pencil down to a nub, in the ground it goes; with some water, sun and some tender loving care (and tips from TreeHugger's How to Green Your Gardening Guide), with any luck your very own (pencil?) plant will soon sprout and grow. Wouldn't it be great if everything we discarded could just be planted? More pics after the jump and at ::Haatar via ::NotCot.org

"at the top of the pencil sits a seed."

"when the pencil gets too small you plant it."
