The Auk Mini 2, an award-winning indoor smart garden from Norway, is an ideal Christmas gift for the person who already seems to have everything, the brand owners claim. Newly launched in spring (a successor to the Auk Mini), it lets home cooks and gardening fans grow fresh herbs and vegetables at home, effortlessly, sustainably and stylishly.
Designed in Oslo, Auk combines Scandinavian design with smart technology to make home growing simple, whether you’re green-fingered or have never owned a plant in your life. The Auk Mini 2 is their most refined model yet, available now in the UK retailing at £209
Why the Auk Mini 2 is this year’s standout Christmas gift:
Grow Anything: Unlike closed capsule systems, Auk’s open planting system lets people grow their own seeds, cuttings, pre-cultivated young plants, or herbs picked up from the supermarket.
Five Times Faster Growth: The EverGrow hydroponic system enables plants to grow up to five times faster than traditional outdoor planting, using 90% less water. Fresh herbs can be harvested in as little as 4 to 6 weeks.
Holiday Mode: A new feature that slows plant growth while the recipient is away over the festive period, and a brand new app lets users control light schedules and colour temperature to suit their home.
Award-Winning Design: The Auk Mini 2 is compact enough to sit on any kitchen countertop and comes in five colourways: Cream & Oak, Coffee & Walnut, Coffee & Oak, Terracotta & Beech, and Sage & Ash. It only needs watering every 12 to 19 days.
Sustainably Made: 100% recycled aluminium, 100% recycled polymer, and FSC-certified wood, shipped in fully plastic-free packaging.
No more soggy, forgotten herbs at the back of the fridge. With Auk Mini 2, they can grow and pick exactly what they want, and enjoy a continuous supply that doesn’t go off, perfect for winter cooking.
Available at auk.com, with nutrient refills (typically lasting 6 to 9 months), coco fibre growing medium, and seeds for year-round growing. Please find more information atta
