RISE SMART GARDEN SYSTEM
TWO-LEVEL

WELCOME TO THE RISE FAMILY!
Rise Gardens is committed to providing the right indoor garden for your spaces and you gardening ambitions. Our modular and versatile
system provides a wide range of configurations. You can choose to build your garden (or later grow your garden) as a one-level, !
two-level, or three level garden by combining the base garden with add-on modules. Additionally, each level can be a short level (best for
growing leafy fast-growing vegetables) or a tall level (best for growing fruiting plants like tomatoes).
Warning: Three-level gardens should not have more than one tall level, or the garden will become too tall.
