Butterfly attracting kit to Jasmine plant?? Help Please!!

I am a newbie and last week bought a new star jasmine plant with me, and I was so happy when I saw new leaves & buds coming in my short care that I wanted to give it a boost. I was also concerned about its hardiness, so wanted to mulch it. I went to home depot and got American heritage's Butterfly & hummingbird attracting kit. It is said to have seed, mulch, advanced soil watering technology, and I felt it might be my perfect answer. It was supposed to be sprinkled on the soil. But when I opened it is nothing but white rounded particles and not at all like that wood mulch I see everywhere! Now I am concerned if I did the right thing after all? if it is mulch in fact? if that seed might germinate and take away my jasmine's soil space!!? If I over-fertilized the jasmine plant, so it instead of boosting its sprits, I would kill the plant's new growth? Please please please advice me guys. BTW, I am not at all eager for any butterflies, but just a mulch.
