Scotts Miracle-Gro Co
A maker of lawn and garden products, Scotts Miracle-Gro sells fertilizers, grass seed, soils and pest controls under brands like Scotts Turf Builder, Miracle-Gro plant food and Ortho. The company traces back to 1868, when Civil War veteran O.M. Scott began selling weed-free grass seed from his Ohio hardware store, and to 1951, when nurseryman Otto Stern and adman Horace Hagedorn launched Miracle-Gro. The two merged in 1995, and the "Miracle-Gro" name was actually suggested by Hagedorn's first wife, Peggy.

Select a row to see that insider’s individual transactions. Sum of the holdings confirmed in the 12 months before this insider's last filing. A Form 4 reports a holding per line — held directly, or through a named trust, partnership or foundation, and in each share class separately — never a person’s total. Lines not restated in that time are left out and shown apart: an active filer restates what they still hold, so a line they did not restate is more often an entity since renamed, whose shares a successor line reports too. An amber marker means some were left out.
Net open-market activity over the last 3 years: -1.19M shares. Grants, option exercises and tax withholding are excluded — they are compensation mechanics, not decisions to buy or sell.
