Challenging Convention: Recent Trials, Experiments and Discoveries in the Garden.
Through his own plant trials and experiments, Matt Mattus is constantly experimenting with mastery and technique, most recently focusing on seed starting and propagating both in his greenhouse and garden. Matt demonstrates for us why we might want to question some accepted cultural methods as well as revisiting lost or forgotten techniques from the past. Matt’s presentations are known for their combination of inspirational beauty and useful content.
Matt Mattus is a creative who cannot stop growing, collecting or learning. He has an inherent curiosity that often dips deep into the past, challenges conventional wisdom or seeks out the obscure. His research has uncovered everything from “secret estate gardeners’ recipes” from the 19th Century to social media myths that are hard to prove worthy.
