"Grow Spring Companion Plants"... LG Electronics Adds New Tiun Seed Kits

Release of Seed Kits for 1 Flower and 2 Herb Varieties

LG Electronics has added new seed kits that can be grown with its plant lifestyle appliances, Tiun and Tiun Mini. This is to allow consumers to experience a variety of companion plants as they welcome spring.

On the 7th, LG Electronics announced the launch of three new seed kits that can be grown with Tiun. The new kits include a new flower called ‘Chaesonghwa’, ‘Opal Basil’, and two types of herbs including ‘Dill’. Among these, the dill seed kit is also available for Tiun Mini.

The new kits are the first results of joint research with Yeonam University, which studies smart agriculture technology. Since last year, LG Electronics has been conducting industry-academic joint research with Yeonam University to find the optimal environment for each plant through big data analysis via digital transformation (DX), reflecting this in the products and diversifying Tiun seed kits.

Consumers can purchase the new kits in the ‘Colors of Love 2’ package, which includes three flowers: ▲Chaesonghwa ▲Candle Celosia ▲Viola, and the ‘Italian Herb 2’ package, which includes ▲Opal Basil ▲Dill ▲Arugula. For Tiun Mini, the new kits can be enjoyed through the ‘Fragrant and Precious Package B’, which includes dill and arugula.

The prices are 42,000 KRW for the Colors of Love 2 package, 36,000 KRW for the Italian Herb 2 package, and 24,000 KRW for the Fragrant and Precious Package B.

Chaesonghwa is a familiar flower often seen in spring flower beds, characterized by its variety of colors. Opal Basil is an herb with mysteriously purple leaves. It has a pleasant aroma and is used as a spice in various dishes. Dill is excellent for removing fishy odors and has recently become famous as an ingredient in lemon dill butter.

With the release of these new kits, LG Tiun now offers a total of 22 kits, including ▲9 leafy vegetables (such as Cheongchima lettuce, Ssam lettuce, Romaine), ▲6 flowers (such as Marigold, Candle Celosia, Chaesonghwa), and ▲7 herbs (such as Arugula, Peppermint, Dill).

Since the launch of Tiun in 2021, LG Electronics has been steadily introducing seed kits. They plan to continue adding kits that allow growing various plants. Shin Sang-yoon, CEO of LG Electronics Sprout Company, said, “We will listen to customer voices and strengthen LG Tiun’s differentiated customer experience, allowing customers to enjoy their own plant lifestyle.”

LG Tiun and Tiun Mini are plant lifestyle appliances that let users enjoy the entire process from germination, sprouting, to plant growth. By following the LG ThinQ app guidance and providing only water and nutrients, anyone can easily experience the joy of growing companion plants.
