Hi there!

I’m Hammad. I am an engineer and a passionate lover of plants.

I always embraced creativity and challenges. But nothing attracts my heart more than indoor plants and gardening—and that’s how Plants Nexus was created.

Why Plants Nexus?

I’m not your typical engineer-turned-gardener. My love for plants started early.

“Growing up, I was mesmerized by how my mother transformed our garden into a heaven of plants giving us fresh vegetables. I used to go with her to local nurseries to buy all kinds of seasonal houseplants for our home. I still remember our visits to local farmers back in 1998, and I remember my mother eagerly asking about each flower she brought home”.

Those moments planted a seed in me 🌸, and it’s been growing ever since!

Indoor gardening (in particular) fascinates me the most. It is incredible how houseplants can put life into a home, purify air and bring a sense of relaxation. They are really more than just decoration. They are companions that enhance our lifestyle and make our homes healthier and happier.
