Miracle-Gro is a globally recognized gardening brand originally developed in 1951 by Horace Hagedorn and Otto Stern in Geneva, New York. Initially launched as a water-soluble fertilizer, the brand became famous through Hagedorn's innovative marketing strategies that helped popularize home gardening. In 1995, Miracle-Gro merged with The Scotts Company to form The Scotts Miracle-Gro Company, which became the world's largest marketer of branded lawn and garden products.
While the brand has American roots and its global parent company is headquartered in Marysville, Ohio, the European and Australian operations were sold in 2017 to Exponent Private Equity. In the United Kingdom, Miracle-Gro products are managed by Evergreen Garden Care Ltd (a subsidiary formed through that divestment). The company operates the Evergreen Research Station in the UK, where formulas are developed and tested specifically for the British climate. Manufacturing for the UK market is largely handled domestically to ensure product efficacy for local soil and plant types, though some specialty components may be sourced globally.
