Greenling's concept is outstanding. Finally, something blooms even from my non-green thumb. It's a visually incredible bloom and, at the same time, a tasty herb garden with rosemary, mint, basil, and chili peppers. I will treat myself to more Greenlings in the future!

We are enthusiastic Greenling customers. The winter set also looks great on our roof terrace.

Greenling gave me a beautiful summer and was a great eye-catcher on my balcony. Now it's hibernating, and I look forward to filling it next year with great plants from you. Massive credit to the Greenling team. The quality of the plants was excellent, and the harvest was abundant.

I am super satisfied! Especially the watering is just brilliant! You only have to take care of the plants every 1-2 weeks.

The thing looks simply elegant, a noble designer piece. Due to the flat surface in which the planters are inserted, it appears clean and tidy, and the plants give it a nice, slightly wild contrast. It's truly a "mini-garden," an ensemble, and not plants lined up in a row.

★★★★★
The little minigarden is the perfect addition to my hardy year-round planting on my balcony. Being retired, I no longer have the stamina to plant myself, and it saves me the trip to the garden center. This is a solution that has me 100% convinced!
