Miracle-Gro Introduces New Gardening Innovations: It's Never Been Easier to Grow Fresh Vegetables and Herbs With Ultimate Raised Garden Bed, Culinary Herb Garden, and Culinary Herb Kit

MARYSVILLE, Ohio, April 25, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Cooks and gardeners alike know that fresh herbs and produce not only look great, but also taste incredible. This spring, Miracle-Gro introduces three innovative gardening products that make it easier than ever to grow delicious vegetables and herbs: the Ultimate Raised Garden Bed, Culinary Herb Garden, and Culinary Herb Kit.

The Ultimate Raised Garden Bed is an easy-to-assemble elevated garden. Designed for use with Miracle-Gro soils, just one large bag of Miracle-Gro Expand 'n Gro Concentrated Planting Mix fills each bed. The frame is assembled quickly, without tools, offering versatility to grow produce in compact spaces, like on rooftops, patios, lawns and decks. Constructed from recycled resin, the long-lasting modular units are stackable or may be used to create a side-by-side garden easily in any space. 

Both the Culinary Herb Garden and the Culinary Herb Kit contain everything to grow herbs indoors year-round -- including enriched Miracle-Gro Potting Mix.  It has never been easier to transform everyday dishes with fresh, tasty herbs. Miracle-Gro Culinary Herb Garden grows three herbs in a mini Gro-Bag. The Culinary Herb Kit features a bag of Miracle-Gro Potting Mix for cultivating one herb. Both options make it easy to grow abundant fresh herbs right on the windowsill.

"Miracle-Gro's new gardening innovations are so exciting for those of us who enjoy growing our own edibles. Whether consumers want access to the most popular culinary herbs in their kitchens or want to step out the back door to pick freshly grown tomatoes, they now have some great new options. We didn't just design these products for gardening experts, anyone can use them!" said Sara Gordon, Director Global Innovation.
