Company Overview

ROBERT VINCENT SIMS, Host of the Garden Rebel Show (AM 580 WDBO AND 96.5 FM ORLANDO - Saturday 7-8 A.M.) Host of America's Garden Rebel (coast to coast) (listen at www.Radioamerica.Org every Sunday 10-12 eastern time and listen on your local radio station across America! Wow! I really love growing plants! Just imagine - I started growing plants in Campbell's soup cans when I was nine years old. It is with great garden pleasure that I welcome you to our Hometalk / Garden Rebel Site. For those of you who are ... See More interested in landscaping, this site will familiarize you with the who, what , where, how, when and why of gardening. As a child, every minute that I wasn't in school I was in the garden, propagating, trimming, fertilizing, and mixing my special tonics and potions. Soon I started to visit all of the various plant societies and listened intently to every lecture. I also read and asked many questions to anyone who grew a plant of any kind. The passion was soon ignited. I loved it all! By age ten I knew exactly what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. Everyone told me that I would change my mind and that I would find out what I really wanted to do as I got older. I knew that they just didn't understand, and that was ok with me. What only mattered was that I knew what made me happy - growing plants. Even then I had plans; plans for creating landscaping that stood out from all the other cookie cutter landscapes, and plans to help people through television and radio to help them understand there is a change in perspective, that working with nature can inspire them. Talking with clients as well as my listeners to create a major impact and to totally change the look of a home or business still inspires and excites me to this day. Yes, I am still creating beautiful landscapes and growing beautiful plants which is what I've always loved to do. Under the Garden Rebel umbrella, I do anything and everything to promote the world of gardening. *Public appearances *Product endorsements *Television commercials *Radio commercials *National televison appearances *Local / National Radio shows *Author ("Lifting the Mind Fog") and gardening mini booklets.
