Your mind is like a glorious garden: a hothouse of brilliant ideas grown from carefully tended seeds of greatness.

Your garden, however, is more like an idle mind: a fruitless place where nothing of substance seems to take root.

So use that noggin of yours and check out the AeroGarden. The self-contained nursery allows you to harvest your own vegetables, herbs, flowers, and fruit without the usual strain and effort. The contraption (which you can set up in your home) makes things grow faster, can be used for transplanting other plants, and yields pesticide-free, organic produce.

Choose specific seed packages: There’s an herb garden, tomato plants, salad greens, flowers, or a variety of basil. The high-tech system alerts you when plants needs water or nutrients and has an integrated lamp that automatically provides the proper amount of light. You could say it’s exactly what you need.

A garden with a mind of its own.
