Many people love growing flowers but have little or no green space in which to plant them. Others live in an area where their garden is dormant throughout the winter. An ideal gift for both of these gardeners is the AeroGarden and its companion seed kits. It’s also a great gift for novice gardeners, as the AeroGarden is completely self-contained, and extremely easy to set up and use. Set up, add water, and watch your garden grow!
The AeroGarden is a hydroponic tray and light system used to grow plants indoors very efficiently. With this method, plants grow up to five times faster than they would in soil.
Hydroponic trays allow the seeds to grow in a contained water source, eliminating the need to worry about using the right kind of soil or wondering which fertilizer is best. The AeroGarden requires only that the user maintain the water level and periodically add a dose of the included liquid plant food. You don’t even have to remember to do either because the AeroGarden will alert you when it’s time.
The AeroGarden uses LED grow lights to help your plants grow quickly and develop healthy roots and leaves. Many of these lights are rated to last up to fifty thousand hours. It should be several years before they need to be replaced.
AeroGarden offers a wide variety of seed kits that are sure to please every gardener. These include herbs, salad greens, vegetables, and flowers. Many of the edibles are varieties it may be difficult to locate at your local grocer, such as bok choi and fresh tea leaves.
Making perhaps the biggest visual impact are the floral seed kits. These include options like petite violas that signify remembrance, broad-leafed coleus for a splash of vibrant colors, and cascading trumpet-shaped petunias.
The seed kits also include a selection of edible flowers. Imagine presenting a friend or loved one with a salad topped with colorful little blooms during the gloomy winter months. What a treat for an avid gardener!
If you’re looking for a gift for someone who appreciates aromatherapy, consider the lavender seed kit. Both the leaves and the flowers are fragrant and retain their lovely scent long after drying.
If you have trouble deciding among all of the beautiful options, there are variety sets such as the charming English Cottage Seed Pod Kit. On the other hand, if you know exactly what you want to order, there are also custom seed kits that allow you to personalize your gift to suit the recipient’s taste.
