ScottsMiracle-Gro, Bonnie Plants and Gardenuity Launch Inspired to Gro™
First-of-its-kind patio garden collection is designed to successfully onboard new gardeners
MARYSVILLE, Ohio, March 18, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ScottsMiracle-Gro, Bonnie Plants and Gardenuity today announced the launch of the Inspired to Gro™ Patio Garden Collection, a fully integrated gardening experience designed to help new and emerging gardeners grow successfully from day one.
Inspired to Gro combines ScottsMiracle-Gro’s plant nutrients, Bonnie Plants’ fully rooted starter plants and Gardenuity’s guided gardening platform – including its curated container garden design, integrated growing components and personalized guidance platform – into a single product offering. This strategic collaboration between three leaders in the lawn and garden industry aims to remove the barriers that have historically prevented millions of interested consumers from starting and sustaining a garden. Inspired to Gro delivers everything needed to plant, grow and thrive in one seamless experience.
“Gardening is one of the most powerful and relevant consumer activities for the many physical, health and wellness benefits it brings,” said Nate Baxter, president and COO of ScottsMiracle-Gro. “Combining our trusted growing solutions with Bonnie’s high-quality starter plants and Gardenuity’s guided gardening system, we together are making it easier than ever for people to begin their gardening journey with confidence.”
While millions of Americans express interest in gardening, many struggle with where to begin or how to maintain success over time. Inspired to Gro addresses the barriers.
“Gardenuity was founded on the belief that gardening should be accessible to everyone, regardless of experience or space,” said Donna Letier, co-founder and CEO of Gardenuity. “Inspired to Gro removes the uncertainty that keeps so many people from starting by giving them the tools, plants and guided support they need to grow successfully from day one. We not only want to help people plant their first garden but also empower them to discover the lifelong joy of gardening. As the way consumers live, work and connect continues to evolve, Inspired to Gro meets people where they are and makes growing possible in their everyday lives.”
The launch comes as consumers increasingly prioritize wellness, sustainability and fresh food access, fueling renewed interest in home gardening. Bonnie Plants, which has supplied vegetable and herb plants to American gardeners for more than a century, sees the collaboration as an important step in expanding access to gardening.
“For more than 100 years, Bonnie Plants has helped people grow their own food at home,” said Sara Gordon, chief growth officer of Bonnie Plants. “Inspired to Gro builds on that legacy by making gardening more approachable and successful for more people. The collection features thoughtfully curated plant selections to support wellness, nourishment and enjoyment.”
The Inspired to Gro Patio Garden Collection includes three distinct offerings — Everyday Good Seasonal Herb Garden, Well Bloomed Limited Edition Edible Flower and Seasonal Herb Garden and Simply Rooted Seasonal Vegetable and Herb Garden. Inspired to Gro is now available on Amazon, Bonnieplants.com and Gardenuity.com with plans to expand to other ecommerce sites. Each Inspired to Gro garden includes:
- Gardenuity’s signature 5-gallon, double-stitched grow bag with reinforced handles for optimal root health and durability.
- Custom-blended soil, formulated specifically for container growing success.
- Four fully rooted Bonnie Plants selected and aligned to the consumer’s location and seasonal growing conditions.
- Miracle-Gro Pour & Feed Plant Food to provide essential nutrients to support plant growth and vitality.
- Grow Pro support from Gardenuity, including personalized guidance and weather-based garden notifications to help ensure ongoing success.
