Introduction

By joining ancient knowledge with modern design processes, we developed

products and systems designed to convert any person into a gardening and

urban cultivation enthusiast

We started with the innovative Minigarden® Vertical, followed by the

Minigarden® Corner and the Minigarden Irrigation Solutions® and, early this

year, we launched the Minigarden® Basic and the line of nutrition and

protection supplements, Minigarden® Grow Up & Bug Off.

The Minigarden® Vertical and the Minigarden® Corner can be used separately

or combined, providing a greater extent and flexibility of uses, and, when

coupled with the Minigarden® watering solutions they become even more

simple and convenient, allowing a greater success in cultivation.

Minigarden® Basic is the new solution for the “lazier” and less accustomed to

these things, who will be able to gain an introduction to the wonders of

plants without having to do much to see them grow.

Minigarden® Grow Up are three new types of nutritious supplements for

plants, which, when used in conjunction with irrigation, complement and

facilitate successful plant growing. Minigarden® Bug Off offers two new

solutions to stimulate and strengthen plants’ natural defences against pests

and diseases.

The range will be broadened with new models and products, increasing the

number of solutions and the ease of urban cultivation.

Welcome to the Urban Green Revolution®.

Minigarden® Vertical

5

What is it The Minigarden® Vertical is a modular system that allows the vertical

growing of ornamental, aromatic and vegetable plants.

The Minigarden® Vertical is freestanding, self-draining and can be installed

inside or outside, depending on the plants grown.

The Minigarden®'s modularity permits to design and install vertical gardens

of any dimension very easily, leaving full room for your creativity.

In this cross-section we can see how the modules fit into each other, as well as the substrate filling.

6

Design and modularity Each module of the Minigarden® Vertical system comprises only 4 easily

mounted parts: a lid, 6 circular clips, a central recipient with 3 cavities and

a base tray.

The assembly is very simple and the possibilities are limitless. Its modular

features permit to stack it both vertically and horizontally, in a single row or

back-to-back, creating countless combinations.

The Minigarden® Vertical can be very easily installed inside or outside,

embedded in or attached to walls or gables.

The Minigarden® Vertical system versatility and simplicity permits an easy

and lasting installation, from the floor or at any height, as illustrated in

these pictures.

The Minigarden® Vertical can be wall mounted, by fixing the circular clips to

the adjoining wall with the help of screws and washers.

Sustainable and durable The combination possibilities are only limited by your imagination,

considering that, besides its modular forms, you can also play with the

plants varieties and colors to create unique effects, with the benefit of being

able to easily replace the plants after installing the Minigarden® Vertical.

The Minigarden® Vertical is made of high resistance polypropylene

copolymer and includes additives for protection against ultraviolet rays,

which allows it to be used in extreme weather conditions (solar radiation

and temperature), having a ten-year guarantee for its integrity. It is also

reusable, fully recyclable and available in 5 colors.

9

For large scale settings or when greater convenience and autonomy are

needed we developed an unique watering system for the Minigarden® Vertical

consisting of a micro tube (Ø ext 6.5mm) with integrated drip feeders or a

porous micro tube (Ø ext 7mm), both hidden inside the module, a pressure

reducing filter and a collecting tube that feeds the micro tube through T-

branches. Additionally, it’s possible to install a liquid fertilizer dosing device

to convert the system to ferti-watering or semi-hydroponic, as well as a

system programmer.

The micro watering tube is installed in each module, passing through the

inner hole of the clip which is mounted on the module's top.

The Minigarden® Vertical was designed with an innovative gravitational

drainage mechanism. This feature ensures that all excess irrigation water at

the plants roots will be drained to the tray at the unit base. This system is

very important to ensure the planting sustainability in the long run.

At the bottom of each module there are small grills (2 per cavity), through which the excess water runs to the tray directly below the corresponding module and, after that, to the tray at the assembly base.

Minigarden® Vertical has inspired countless architects who have created

unique projects in such places as Hong Kong, Spain, Dubai, Netherlands,

Portugal, etc.

Its unique features are the best solution to create vertical landscaped spaces

in any size, with a guarantee of easy installation and maintenance and at an

extremely competitive cost compared to other systems.

The only limit for the Minigarden® Vertical potential is your creativity,

because, although mini, it allows to achieve big results.

What is it The Minigarden® Corner is a follow-up on the original product, the

Minigarden® Vertical.

The Minigarden® Corner not only allows to close the ends and create 90º

connections in the Minigarden® Vertical, it also has countless uses as a

standalone product.

As with the original product, the Minigarden® Corner is a modular system

that allows the vertical growing of ornamental, aromatic and vegetable

plants, it is also freestanding and self-draining, and can be installed inside or

outside, depending on the plants grown.

In this cross-section, we can see how the modules fit into each other, as well as the substrate filling.

mounted parts: a lid, 2 circular clips, a central recipient with 1 cavity and a

base tray.

The assembly is very simple and the possibilities are limitless. Its modular

features permit to stack it both vertically and horizontally, in a simple way,

creating countless combinations (90º, 180º and 360º).

The Minigarden® Corner can be installed inside or outside, in wall corners

or window-sills, on benches or pieces of furniture, hanging from walls and

in many other ways, depending on your creativity.

Minigarden® Vertical & Corner

25

The combined use of the Minigarden® Vertical and the Minigarden® Corner

brings about a real revolution in the world of vertical cultivation module

systems.

The interconnection possibilities of the two products are huge.

The ends of the Minigarden® Vertical can be finished with plants through

longitudinal connections with the Minigarden® Corner.

Floor-standing Minigarden® Vertical assembly finished in one end with Minigarden® Corner

26

The ends of back-to-back assemblies of the Minigarden® Vertical can be

finished with plants through longitudinal connections with the Minigarden®

Corner.

This kind of freestanding assembly can be made higher, by stacking more

Minigarden® Vertical and Minigarden® Corner modules, or longer, by using

more Minigarden® Vertical module columns.

It can be used to divide spaces, both outdoor (esplanades) and indoor

(offices), in the form of plant partitions.

27


The simple Minigarden® Vertical assemblies mounted in 90º vertical planes

can now be connected with the Minigarden® Corner. This kind of setting will

additionally guarantee greater stability in the Minigarden® Vertical

assemblies.

28


Finally, we suggest square or rectangular freestanding assemblies, in which

all the outside surfaces are covered with plants.

29


The watering system installation in the various combined assemblies of the

Minigarden® Vertical with the Minigarden® Corner shown in previous pages

is similar to the one used with the Minigarden® Vertical only.

The system consists of a micro tube (Ø 6.5mm) with integrated drip feeders

or a porous micro tube (Ø 7mm), both hidden inside each Minigarden®

Vertical and/or Minigarden® Corner module.

The different micro tubes at each module level are connected, through the T-

branches, to the water feeding collector. This main water feeding tube should

have a pressure reducing filter; additionally, it’s possible to install a liquid

fertilizer dosing device as well as a system programmer.

The micro watering tube is installed in each module, passing through the

inner hole of the clip which is mounted on the module's top.

Minigarden® Micro Irrigation Solutions

Good watering is critical to the growth and health of the plants. The plants

grown in the Minigarden® Vertical and Minigarden® Corner are no exception.

The innovative gravitational drainage system of the Minigarden® Vertical and

Corner solves the problem of excess water (from rain or irrigation). Water

which is not absorbed by the plant is directly drained to the tray at the

assembly base.

This drainage technology eliminates the passing of any excess water from

the plants in the top modules to the plants in the bottom ones, essential

factor to guarantee the growth and survival of healthy plants.

For this reason, all the plants grown in the Minigarden® Vertical and

Minigarden® Corner need to be watered.

The Minigarden® micro watering system, intuitive and easy to use and

automate, makes watering easy and convenient. By integrating a fertilizer

dosing device, the plant nutrition becomes a simple and efficient task.

These features give the Minigarden the ability to re-create the best natural

airing and moisture conditions.

The new Irrigation Kit Basic consists of a drip watering solution specially

designed for the Minigarden® Vertical.

Simple and intuitive to install, it includes micro tubes with drip feeders and

The solution is scalable up to three kits, allowing the irrigation of up to 27

modules (81 plants). This watering installation can be fed with a common

hand sprayer or attached to a tap.

Minigarden® Basic

36

What it is Minigarden® Basic is the simplest and easiest system to use of the

Minigarden family.

Minigarden® Basic is a plant growing system ideal for those starting out in

gardening or for people who do not want to worry too much about the

essential basic care needed for plants to grow, specifically irrigation and

nutrition.

Thanks to an ingenious system for storing water with nutrients and

irrigation, Minigarden® Basic allows ornamental plants, aromatic plants or

small vegetables to be grown and maintained without the need for the usual

daily care, as the system ensures regular irrigation and nutrition according

to the plants’ needs.

Minigarden® Basic is the easiest and most efficient system on the market for

looking after and growing plants successfully. There is no need for users to

even dirty their hands when planting, just insert 2 normal pots containing

the chosen plants and watch them grow.

be placed inside the watertight platform.

Minigarden® Basic is ready to be fixed and suspended on walls by means of

a bracket that slots into the drains on the watertight platform of the base.

Assembly is extremely simple and intuitive, allowing 2 types of

configuration:

Feeder lid

The unique and innovative design of the Minigarden® Basic includes an

exclusive, 1.25-L removable reservoir which can be filled with water and a

single dose of Minigarden® Grow Up nutrients.

Once full, it is closed with the feeder lid and placed with the lid pointing

downwards into the round base supporting the reservoir. The system is then

ready for use.

The combination of the reservoir, the feeder lid and the geotextile underlay

placed inside the watertight platform at the base of the Minigarden® Basic

allow the plants in both pots to be irrigated and fed for long periods of time

completely automatically.

Minigarden® Basic may be installed inside or outside, on window sills, on

tables, worktops and furniture, in kitchens, living rooms, bathrooms, offices,

verandas, terraces, etc.

From installation to maintenance, Minigarden® Basic is so simple that any

child could assemble and maintain it. It is a genuine “plug-and-play” growing

system.

Design and convenience

Design and convenience Build quality and durability are distinctive features of Minigarden® products.

Like Minigarden® Vertical and Minigarden® Corner, Minigarden® Basic is also

made of high-strength polypropylene copolymer and contains additives to

protect against UV rays, making it capable of withstanding extreme climatic

conditions (solar radiation and temperatures), and is guaranteed to last for

a period of not less than 10 years. It is also reusable and totally recyclable.

For now, Minigarden® Basic is only available in one colour, white, which in

addition to looking good anywhere, highlights the beauty and colour of the

plants themselves.

Minigarden® Basic may be used anywhere, indoors or outside, by anyone,

aged 5 to 105, to care for and grow pot plants.

defences of plants against pests and diseases.

manure, boosting plant resilience and strengthening them against adverse

conditions.

biological fertilizer, which improves the general growing conditions of the

plant.

What they are

Minigarden® Bug Off Blue and Red are available in individual doses of

3 ml and 7 ml, respectively, to be diluted in 1.25L of water.

Plants should be sprayed with both supplements regularly, every 8 days

during the period of maximum growth and when the temperature and air

humidity are high, preferably before any pests or diseases appear.

Prevention is better than cure.
