Created by Miguel Sáez Carral, The Gardener follows a gardener named Elmer (Álvaro Rico), but he is not your typical horticulturalist. Elmer isn't your typical horticulturist, though. He's actually a deadly assassin, with less of a green thumb and more of a red one. Under the strict guidance of his controlling mother, La China Jurado (Cecilia Suárez), the pair run a successful garden centre and murder-for-hire business.
