I got an aero garden for Christmas, and it is fun. The herbs aren't as flavorful as they are when they are grown outdoors, but it's more fun growing them that buying them at the store 8 months of the year.

They also have smaller ones, flower kits and other such stuff.

Am I recommending it? They sure have been easy to work with - I had trouble with one of the bulbs and they replaced it right away, free of charge. They even offered to replace the plants if I wanted.
