What kind of seeds are included?
The specific types of seeds included can vary and are often a selection suitable for general gardening.
Is this box suitable as a gift?

How should I clean the notepad and labels?
The notepad and labels are paper products. They can be written on with a standard pen or pencil. Clean the box itself with a damp cloth, avoiding direct contact with the paper items.
Troubleshooting
Lid is difficult to open or close.
Check for any obstructions within the hinge area or along the lid's edge. Ensure the box is on a level surface. If the wood has expanded due to humidity, allow it to dry in a well-ventilated area.
Wood appears dry or faded.
Apply a small amount of natural wood oil (like linseed oil or tung oil) with a soft cloth to restore moisture and color. Wipe off any excess oil and allow it to dry completely.
