Greenclaws was a children's television series aired on the BBC in the late-1980s and early-1990s, aimed at the pre-school audience.

Greenclaws was a big green monster who lived in a greenhouse. Every week, Iris, a grown woman, who was playing someone much younger, would visit Greenclaws. They would put a seed in a plant pot, put the plant pot inside a tree, wait for Owlma (a mechanical owl) to sing, then open the tree to find the plant had grown in to something bearing unusual fruit. There would also be a story told while the plant was growing, accompanied by illustrations.
