I picked up one of these pencils at a recent conference. There is a sunflower seed help within the plastic portion of the pencil, though I don't know what kind of sunflower, and I can't yet confirm of its viability. It probably is. This is a cool idea, especially
for swag. As a gardener though, I'd prefer to know what variety of seed I'm planting beyond "Sunflower," "Sage," or "Basil."</div>
