Seek & Grow

A bespoke seed-finding and garden-nurturing offering from Mai-Newt.

“Because every garden begins with a wish—and sometimes, a little help finding the right seeds.”

How It Works

1. Whisper Us Your Dream
Healing herbs? Edible flowers? A native pollinator patch? Share your garden wish and we’ll begin the magic.
...........................................

2. The Seed Seek – Initial Quest Fee
We search for rare, heirloom, native or unusual seeds tailored to your request. Western Australia Organisms List has a list of permitted plants and seeds that can be imported into WA from other states. The initial fee covers the finding, contacting growers, and sourcing with care.

One-time Fee: $30.00
(Payable upfront...just add Seek & Grow product to cart)
...........................................

3. Choose Your Seeds
I'll initially send you a list of seeds I know we can obtain from other states. You choose your favourites and we begin raising your newts with love. If you're desired newt isn't on the list, I'll search for them.
...........................................

4. Choose Your Custom Care Package
(Pay-as-you-Grow)
Each care package includes:

Sprout Stage
Just-emerged seedling (7–28 days)

Plant Seedings (homemade seed raising mix, worm castings & wee, liquid seaweed fertiliser, sun lamp (if required), heating pad (if required), movement throughout the day (partial shade, full sun etc)

OR...

Bud Stage
Developing personality (28-100 days)
Move to a bigger pot in homemade seed raising mix, and make adjustments to worm castings & wee, liquid seaweed fertiliser, sun lamp (if required), heating pad (if required), movement throughout the day (partial shade, full sun etc) according to plant species / type)

Please note:
Each species/type of seeds are different. Some take only days to germinate whilst others can take up 3 months.

The Seek & Grow Service ONLY seeks seeds... we do not search seedlings/plants.
