BOULDER, CO--(Marketwire - February 8, 2011) - AeroGrow International, Inc. (
"An indoor garden in the middle of winter is the perfect way to beat the winter blues and enjoy fresh herbs, flowers, salad greens -- even vine-ripened tomatoes -- no matter what it's like outside," said Jack Walker, CEO of AeroGrow. "We launched AeroGardens 5 years ago and changed the face of indoor gardening. For the first time, anyone had a simple, reliable, inexpensive and attractive way to garden at any time of year. For us, National Indoor Gardening Month is a chance to highlight all the wonderful ways that indoor gardens can make a difference in people's lives, and February weather gives us the perfect time to make the point."
"Indoor gardens are much more than just a fun and engaging hobby," continued Mr. Walker. "They help home cooks produce tastier meals, with fresher produce and fewer trips to the store. And study after study shows that having plants in the home not only improves air quality but also significantly impacts people's levels of happiness. Plants just plain make people happy, and the AeroGarden is the simplest way to grow a very wide variety of plants with guaranteed success."
During National Indoor Gardening Month AeroGrow will host a variety of resources on indoor gardening at www.aerogarden.com/NIGM, covering topics like plant selection, grow lights, nutrients, garden pruning and more.
AeroGrow manufactures and markets a full line of dirt-free indoor gardens and accessories that enable cooks, gardeners and hobbyists to grow fresh herbs, salad greens, flowers and even cherry tomatoes and peppers year round, regardless of weather. Gardens are fully automated and come with everything needed to grow, including built in grow lights. AeroGardens retail from $59.95 for small, countertop models, to $199.95 for larger gardens that will successfully grow many full-sized vegetables and larger plants.
