 PROFILE
The grass sure seems greener over at The Scotts Company, the world's largest maker and marketer of horticultural and turf products. Its garden and indoor plant care items include grass seeds, fertilizers, lawn spreaders, potting soils, and mulch. Brand names include Ortho, Miracle-Gro, Hyponex, and Turf Builder. In addition, Scotts markets Monsanto's consumer Roundup herbicide products worldwide. The company has sold its professional turf business (Pro-Turf) to concentrate on its consumer products. Siblings James Hagedorn (president and CEO) and Katherine Littlefield (a director) own approximately 36% of the company. Hagedorn and Littlefield are the children of Horace Hagedorn, the creator of Miracle-Gro plant food.
