About

The Botanic Designer is Markus Hamence.

He has a long and winding love of Indoor Plants. Chasing his father and grand parents around their gardens as a child and carefully studying and monitoring every move served beneficial in developing his love of nature and foliage. Primarily his knowledge of plants come through trial & error (with many disasters) and experimentation, Markus (also a studied horticulturalist & interior designer) has learnt his skills on the ground running.

Markus (and his home of over 400+ indoor plants) has appeared over many platforms including tv show South Aussie With Cosi, Glam Adelaide, The Adelaide Advertiser, The Daily Mail and now appears on the new Channel Nine show as a ‘Garden Guru’ on The Garden Hustle.

A firm believer in positive energy and good vibes, Markus emplifies this in his work with an aim to create beautiful environments for people and helping to ensure good mental health all around. and spreading the love, joy and happiness that we can only benefit from and need more of in the world.

The Botanic Designer offers ‘tips & tricks’, advice and plenty of inspirational Indoor Plant and Interior imagery. Follow us on Facebook and Instagram for all the regular content.

The fusion of good Interior Design and Indoor Plants creates the perfect space to live in – a calming sanctuary that reflects the occupants needs & personality to feel at one with their environment.
