Scotts Wins Certificate of Merit at Chelsea Flower Show 2009

Using the ‘It’s Gro Time’ theme, Scotts Miracle-Gro has been awarded a highly-prized Certificate of Merit by the judges at this year’s Chelsea Flower Show for the outstanding presentation of their stand.

The fascinating exhibit was topped off with the famous EverGreen frog symbol and showed a wide range of grow-your-own vegetables, fruit and containers full of flowers to promote Scotts' range of garden care aids.

Part of the stand showed how to ‘Gro your Own Pizza’ and displayed examples and leaflets to show consumers that they too can grow a great crop of tomatoes, sweet peppers, chillies and herbs.

A similar area entitled 'Gro your own Sunday Roast' showed how to grow potatoes, carrots and other vegetables on patios, balconies or other hard standing.

Decorative flowers were not ignored and a separate area of container-grown bedding plants and shrubs provided a beautiful display of blooms to delight visitors who might have been surprised at the extra height and area that a simple stepladder can create.
