Miracle-Gro has had a place in my garden shed for many years. It helps to keep plants growing strong. Strength keeps them more resistant to drought and other threats. My roots are deeply embedded in the garden. I have enjoyed it both professionally and as a hobby for nearly all my life. The packaging of
Miracle-Gro hasn't changed much if at all, but its interesting to now notice the specific traits of the font.
I tried to upload my image to the sites. Nothing came up. I tried going through the endless questionnaire at
Identifont, but nothing valuable or certain came up there either. Finally I just googled "typeface used miracle gro logo" which led me to this
forum post at
Typophile. So, to verify that the unconfirmed answer on the post was accurate, I searched for the font by name and found that it is probably the origin of the logo.
I think that the font may have been used as a starting point for the Miracle-Gro logo, but the logo appears to be stretched vertically. Three solid selling points in supporting this are the upright "M", the "G" with no horizontal bar as well as the form of the lowercase "r" and "a".
