Terrible boxes - misshapen and torn - Can't give as gift - very disappointed. Pencils have dirt on them too.

5.0 out of 5 stars Such popular pencils, and they can Grow!
Reviewed in the United States on October 29, 2017

These charming seed pencils were the most remarked on of about a dozen presents! Each is nicely crafted and has the plant-to-be's name on it. The woody part has a nice feel and the seeds are in a securely fastened, dark black plastic capsule on the eraser end.
A hand sharpener whittled them into really sharp points with little fuss, and eraser heads fit over the capsules with no problem.
They made a whimsical and appreciated present with a future, and if they do grow, all the better!
Sprout World also sells colored pencils with seeds - nice!  Sprout Pencil: Herb Pack

5.0 out of 5 stars Great idea, good quality pencil, solid graphite.
Reviewed in the United States on May 20, 2014

I originally purchased Sprout Pencils during their Kickstarter start-up. I absolutely loved the pencils. I gave some away as gifts, and kept a few for myself. I do want to warn against getting the capsule wet! If you have a padded pencil case, I would highly recommend it, as well as a good quality pencil sharpener. I am currently on my 4th pencil of the new packs. I had been looking for the perfect pencil to get me back into using graphite, and these ending up being the perfect match! I am left-handed, but the idea of being able to reuse the pencil and grow a plant outweighs any graphite on my palm, as well as keeping me using the same pencil. I normally have a tendency to switch out products regularly, but have been sticking to the Sprout Pencils since my new packs arrived.

4.0 out of 5 stars You'll miss the eraser
Reviewed in the United States on April 1, 2017

This is a fun pencil, and I am very excited to plant them when I'm done. I especially appreciate that the name of the herb is printed on each pencil so you can decide which to begin with accordingly. Do remember that the tip must be soaked in water for an hour before you plant them (with the see pod down in the soil and the wood of the pencil sticking out).

My only criticism is that the seed pod is exactly where an eraser would be, and if you're not careful it looks like one too, so I'm always just catching myself before rubbing it violently across a page. I went ahead and bought some erasers because everyone makes mistakes and I feel ridiculous crossing out pencil marks when they are erasable, but I still sometimes forget and try to use the seed end. All and all I still think the pencils are fun.

I'm going to begin teaching next year, and I think these might be the pencils I keep in my bag to give away if students forget their writing implement.

5.0 out of 5 stars These are the ones to buy!

Other pencils I ordered (from another seller) were tiny, came with a plastic cap to house the seeds, and were shipped from China. Literally had the customs stamp on the envelope. Not too sustainable!

These are regular sized pencils, house the seeds in a cap that reminds me of caps used to make supplements (i.e., they will dissolve), and all markings on the pencil are burnt into the wood. Made with FSC wood. These are the ones to buy!

Also checked out their web page, apparently you can order their products customized too.

P.S. I am a regular paying customer.

These make unique little gifts! My friends were all very happy when they received their pencil. The people that I've given the pencils to are hobbyist writers and artists, so when I said "keep drawing/writing so you can plant it!" they all smiled!

I can't really comment on the quality as I gave them all away, but the quality seemed to be alright and the packaging was quite nice. They are a little on the expensive side but consider how one-of-a-kind they are, I guess it's okay.

3.0 out of 5 stars Cool! But is it enough?
Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2014
Verified Purchase
This was bought as a gift, 'cause it's a cool idea: plant your pencils! However, there is nothing else particularly cool about these pencils. They're not superb quality (good, but not special), they don't smell like flowers (or herbs)...
Don't take this as complaining, because nothing is advertised except the ability to plant them. It's just a little bit of a steep price for pencils that are only fun after you're done using them.

5.0 out of 5 stars What a fun gift!
Reviewed in the United States on September 10, 2014
Verified Purchase
This are a great gift! I bought these for a 10 year old boy and he loved them so much he excitedly brought them with on the first day of school to them show off, then wrapped and regifted one to his teacher.

Pro: The wood and lead are strong. It's a great way to make kids want to draw AND grow something.

Con: Obviously, there's no eraser so if you're giving these to a kid be sure to find a fun eraser too.
