The Scotts Miracle-Gro Company

The Scotts Miracle-Gro Company is the world's largest marketer of branded consumer lawn and garden products, with brands including Scotts, Miracle-Gro, Ortho, Roundup and Tomcat. It is a physical consumer-goods manufacturer and retailer: its digital surface is a Salesforce Commerce Cloud storefront and corporate site at scottsmiraclegro.com, plus end-user mobile apps. It publishes no developer program, no public API, and no machine-readable contract. The one developer-facing surface it ever marketed — the open API for the GRO connected smart-watering platform (Gro 7 Zone Controller, Gro Water Sensors) — had its cloud service discontinued on 2021-12-30 and its hosts no longer resolve. The Hawthorne Gardening Company subsidiary was divested to Vireo Growth in April 2026 and is no longer part of this company's surface.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/scotts-miracle-gro: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
