First-of-its-kind patio garden collection is designed to successfully onboard new gardeners. MARYSVILLE, Ohio, March 18, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - ScottsMiracle-Gro, Bonnie Plants and Gardenuity today announced the launch of the Inspired to Gro(TM) Patio Garden Collection, a fully integrated gardening experience designed to help new and emerging gardeners grow successfully from day one. Inspired to Gro combines ScottsMiracle-Gro's plant nutrients, Bonnie Plants' fully rooted starter plants and Gardenuity's guided gardening platform - including its curated container garden design, integrated growing components and personalized guidance platform - into a single product offering. This strategic collaboration between three leaders in the lawn and garden industry aims to remove the barriers that have historically prevented millions of interested consumers from starting and sustaining a garden. Inspired to Gro delivers everything needed to plant, grow and thrive in one seamless experience. "Gardening is one of the most powerful and relevant consumer activities for the many physical, health and wellness benefits it brings," said Nate Baxter, president and COO of ScottsMiracle-Gro. "Combining our trusted growing solutions with Bonnie's high-quality starter plants and Gardenuity's guided gardening system, we together are making it easier than ever for people to begin their gardening journey with confidence." While millions of Americans express interest in gardening, many struggle with where to begin or how to maintain success over time. Inspired to Gro addresses the barriers. "Gardenuity was founded on the belief that gardening should be accessible to everyone, regardless of experience or space," said Donna Letier, co-founder and CEO of Gardenuity. "Inspired to Gro removes the uncertainty that keeps so many people from starting by giving them the tools, plants and guided support they need to grow successfully from day one. We not only want to help people plant their first garden but also empower them to discover the lifelong joy of gardening. As the way consumers live, work and connect continues to evolve, Inspired to Gro meets people where they are and makes growing possible in their everyday lives." The launch comes as consumers increasingly prioritize wellness, sustainability and fresh food access, fueling renewed interest in home gardening. Bonnie Plants, which has supplied vegetable and herb plants to American gardeners for more than a century, sees the collaboration as an important step in expanding access to gardening. "For more than 100 years, Bonnie Plants has helped people grow their own food at home," said Sara Gordon, chief growth officer of Bonnie Plants. "Inspired to Gro builds on that legacy by making gardening more approachable and successful for more people. The collection features thoughtfully curated plant selections to support wellness, nourishment and enjoyment." The Inspired to Gro Patio Garden Collection includes three distinct offerings - Everyday Good Seasonal Herb Garden, Well Bloomed Limited Edition Edible Flower and Seasonal Herb Garden and Simply Rooted Seasonal Vegetable and Herb Garden. Inspired to Gro is now available on Amazon, Bonnieplants.com and Gardenuity.com with plans to expand to other ecommerce sites.

Run with control: how enterprises regain command with OpenText and SAP solutions. Proven stories of leading global organizations taking back control at scale Control is easy to take for granted - until it's gone. For many enterprises modernizing SAP environments, control slips away quietly. Legacy repositories multiply. Content sprawls across systems. Costs creep up. IT teams spend more time maintaining what exists than enabling what's next. OpenText and SAP solutions help organizations reverse that trajectory. By uniting structured processes with unstructured content on a cloud-first foundation, enterprises regain control - at scale - without slowing the business down. Learn how these OpenText and SAP customers gained greater enterprise control at scale. ScottsMiracle-Gro: turned quick wins into enterprise-wide control and saved $500,000. At ScottsMiracle-Gro, years of growth had left behind a familiar problem: valuable business content spread across systems, rising license costs, and limited visibility when it mattered most. The SAP team knew modernization couldn't just be about moving systems - it had to deliver tangible business wins quickly. By deploying OpenText(TM) Core Content Management, tightly integrated with SAP, ScottsMiracle-Gro began consolidating content into a fully searchable, cloud-based archive. The impact was immediate. Saved $500,000 legacy license costs. Audit trails strengthened. Documents that once took time to locate were now available in seconds. But the real shift came after the first successes. As early results spread, other departments took notice. What started as a targeted initiative quickly became a blueprint for broader transformation - proving that control, when done right, builds momentum. Once we had shown the quick wins, more departments wanted to come on board, and we're already looking at other business units where OpenText Core Content Management and OpenText Core Capture can add value. Mani Velayudhan Director of SAP Operations ScottsMiracle-Gro ENERCON: archived 20 million records, controlling 24/7 availability and costs. For ENERCON, one of the world's leading wind turbine manufacturers, control meant reliability. With more than 20 million archived records supporting mission-critical SAP processes, downtime or data loss simply wasn't an option. At the same time, rising data center costs and infrastructure management were pulling IT resources away from strategic priorities. By moving to OpenText(TM) Core Archive for SAP(R) Solutions in the cloud, ENERCON achieved a rare balance: uncompromising availability with lower operational burden. Archives remained accessible around the clock, while infrastructure costs dropped €23,000 a year. IT teams regained time and focus - redirecting effort toward digital transformation rather than system maintenance. The transition reinforced a long-standing trust in the SAP-OpenText partnership, now extended into a modern, cloud-first model. We have trusted OpenText Core Archive for SAP Solutions to support ENERCON's mission-critical document archiving needs for more than 15 years, and we look forward to building on those successes in the OpenText Cloud. Malte Coordes IT Engineer ENERCON IT Service GmbH Run with control, confidence, and clarity. Learn how OpenText and SAP enable cloud-first control, governance by design, and clarity across the enterprise. LuLu Group: achieved 70% STP rate with greater invoice processing control. For LuLu Group International, control wasn't just an IT objective - it was essential to keeping a global retail and distribution operation running smoothly. With millions of invoices flowing through the business and suppliers depending on timely processing, manual steps and fragmented systems created friction. Delays impacted relationships. Visibility suffered. Scale amplified every inefficiency. By deploying OpenText(TM) Core Archive for SAP(R) Solutions, OpenText(TM) Core Capture for SAP(R), and OpenText(TM) Vendor Invoice Management for SAP(R) Solutions, LuLu Group transformed how information moved through SAP. Streamlined the processing of more than nine million invoices a year. Goods receiving accelerated 50%. Suppliers experienced faster, more predictable outcomes. We're now achieving a 70% straight-through processing (STP) rate with our OpenText solutions, which enables us to process millions of invoices a year with minimal human input. Sudeendra Pulivendala Technical Services Manager SAP, LuLu Group Control that moves with the business. Across industries, these organizations share a common result: control without compromise. OpenText and SAP solutions deliver a unified foundation that simplifies architecture, reduces migration scope, and keeps ERP environments clean-core and cloud-ready. Governance is embedded. Content is connected. IT regains command - while the business moves faster. This is what it means to run on technology that moves: streamlined control that scales, adapts, and accelerates what comes next. Ellen Hannigan.
