Winter Vegetables
Even if the only thing you’ve ever buried in a cardboard box is Tiddles the cat, prepare to be pleasantly surprised because Grobox makes cultivating flowers and veg easier than digging a hole. Yes, really! Simply plant the entire bulb-laden shebang – biodegradable box and all – get busy with the watering can, and before you know it your borders or tubs will be blooming.
Winter Garden
Treehuggers will be welly deep in joy because the box itself is made from recycled cardboard and acts as an insulator, protecting plants from prolonged cold, ground frosts and pests (such as the aforementioned cat). It also releases special nutrients as it degrades, increasing the fertility of surrounding soil, so you can plant your Grobox virtually anywhere in the garden.
Valentine's special:
Love in a Box
If all this talk of gardening has got you reaching for your wellies in anticipation, it’s worth remembering that Groboxes make fantastic gifts for anyone who loves gardening but hates hard work – and that means almost everyone. You dig?

Can you only plant these in winter?Kelly, Essex - Dec '09
Firebox says: They're best planted in winter but really you can plant them whenever you like.
I would just like to say WOW what a great product. I have just planted a veggie one and Ive never had more fun stabbing holes in a box and then burrying it! (not that I've ever done that b4!) Nothing has grown over night so it's not magic (damnit! lol) but I cant wait to not want to eat all the lovely fresh veggies!! ...to be fair I'll much prefere devouring the sweeties that came with my order - thanks firebox! :).Sarah B, Northampton - Dec '09
What a fantastic idea. I have always loved the idea of growing my own veg but never really liked the work that came with it!! Cant wait to get one of these.Rosie Clarke, Osgathorpe - Nov '09
