MY AIM
My aim is very simple.
I have a passion for plants and wish to bring you two types of videos.
FIRSTLY, videos that solve problems, answer gardening FAQs, provide shortcuts, tips and hints about gardening.
SECONDLY to provide introductions and information on plants that I enjoy.
I like all types of plants so my videos cover both garden plants and indoor/house plants.
I try to get straight to the point and provide information as efficiently as possible.
So I try to keep my videos short and sweet. I don't like unnecessary waffle and fluff!
If that sounds like the type of plant info you need and the kind of videos you like then why not subscribe?
I am sure that at least some of my upcoming videos will be interesting to you.
I have a lot of future videos in the pipeline. As of summer 2024 I now have multiple video projects that I
am working on simultaneously so that I can bring you interesting content in the weeks and months to come.
WHO AM I?
My name is Matthew and I started gardening at the tender age of 5 years old.
Carrot tops in a tray of water were the first things I grew. Of course carrot tops grow
leaves but don't grow into carrots. But that doesn't matter when you're 5. Just a few leaves
sprouting out of nothing can be fascinating.
I progressed onto seeds and started off some brussels sprouts and calendula. An unusual combination but both were successful and I was hooked.
Christmases brought windowsill seed starter kits of Mesembryanthemum, French Marigolds and Godetia and a box containing some compost, a plastic pot and a huge bulb -a Hippeastrum (Amaryllis).
Over the years I have grown a lot of different plants. I have tried most types at one time or another. Alpines, perennials, annuals, carnivorous, cactus, patio plants, houseplants, pond plants, bonsai, spring/summer bulbs etc. It's a long list.
Do I know it all? Have I grown them all? Heck no!
There is always another plant, another technique, another idea to try for the first time. There are so many varieties of plants in the world that it'd be impossible to grow them all, even in 10 lifetimes.
But that also means that it's impossible to get bored with gardening.
We may not always have great success with particular plants and every gardener has a failure or a poorly performing plant every year but there's always next season to try again!
I think gardeners are on the most part, a happy and healthy bunch. We're always looking forward to each new year with its opportunities to plant something new, to try again and to refresh.
I am convinced that gardening is the greatest therapy of all.

You're very welcome! Thanks for watching.

I love syngonium and especially the mini variety. Great for terrariums because of slow growth rate

[@plantwithmatt]

Thanks for the comment Richard. Yes, that is a very good point.

[@vivekbind2572]

I have ordered around 15 varieties of syngoniums. Making my own collection . . Looking forward to knowing more about syngoniums

[@plantwithmatt]

What a great collection that is going to be! Its a really good genus and you can get super results with them, even in the average house. Good luck with the growing!
