Miracle-Gro introduces Expand 'n Gro Organic planting mix

MARYSVILLE, Ohio — Miracle-Gro has launched an organic gardening product in select markets.

Expand 'n Gro Organic planting mix can be used both in ground and in pots. When used in ground, Expand 'n Gro works as a soil amendment, improving soil structure and also helps in-ground plants grow up to three times larger, as compared with planting in native soil alone.

"Expand 'n Gro Organic is an innovative, expandable planting mix that is easy-to-use and enriches soil. Every gardener can significantly increase in-ground and container gardening results with Expand 'n Gro. Incorporating it helps where soils are heavy clays or sands that are difficult to keep right balance between moisture and air in soil," Miracle-Gro marketing director Amy Gath said.

Miracle-Gro Expand 'n Gro organic planting mix is available in major retailers throughout Albuquerque, N.M., and Colorado Springs and Denver, Colo., as a 0.67 cubic ft. bag (that expands up to three times, to make 2 cubic ft. of soil) at a suggested retail price of $15.99.
