It all starts in a strange garden in the town centre, where the odd Mr M lives. The man looks like he’s from another era and struggles to navigate the modern world. His identity remains a mystery throughout. However, the children can’t help but notice that everything Mr M. does in the garden, whether he’s making meteorological observations, looking after the bees or tending to the fruit trees, was also done by Gregor Johann Mendel. The mystery begins to unravel. An eight-episode adventure series for children.
