Fairchild Botanic Garden Tour - Plant One On Me - Ep. 094
You may remember we visited Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden back in Episode 65. That was just after Hurricane Irma ravaged Florida, so both the employees of Fairchild and the volunteers were pretty busy picking up the pieces and reassembling the landscape. However, within a few months, everything was back up and running. And since that time, they went ahead and did quite a bit of replanting with some new species, both inside and out, and Chad Husby is back to take us through it.
Keep in mind I was filming solo here, so I may have not gotten as many close-ups as I would have liked. Regardless, we cover 75+ species of plants, many of which were new to me-so I hope you enjoy!

God has been busy. how fortunate are we to be able to appreciate and be introduced to so much of his magnificent creation
I loved how the little kids were all gathered around at some point of the video listening in and learning too about these plants that's what these places are all about!

I'm Indonesian and watching this video making me crazyyyy... I saw most of these plants around in my home country. Never really cared about them. Now that I live far away, and starting to collect home plants, I want to go back, stay and start collecting plants there. 😁

Yeah, often we appreciate what we DON’T have. But no worries. This is the reason why humanity evolves and we don’t live in caves anymore. We’re a curious and never satisfied species.
Summer, when I'm stressed out by life, I watch and rewatch your videos. They really lift my spirits. I even listen to you to go to sleep! And now that we've been in quarantine for so long.. unable to go anywhere, your field trips and tours have become a wonderful escape. Thank you and ❤️ from Malaysia.
I liked how Summer kind of just let Chad and his knowledge shine. Sometimes on the field trips I feel like she talks over the 'tour guide'.
49 minutes full of beautiful new impressions of plants, transmitted by great people! Can't say it often enough: Thank you so much Summer !!! 💕

You AND Chad are the best people in the world.
I'm glad I went back and found this, one of my favorite videos, very informative and great variety. 👍
Oh my god. Thank you so much for this video. This is all I ever want in a garden; to follow around an expert who will introduce me to all the plants and tell me fascinating things about them. That was glorious.Those selaginella!

I hope Asian countries feature our "weeds" in their conservatory gardens and the beautiful dandelion gets its due honor.
I think one of my favorite parts of being plant parents is that everyone has their own favorite genus and plants that makes them happy
What an AMAZING garden. The 50 minutes just flew by. Thanks soooo much for this upload. Im sick in bed and it was great to watch. :)

I like his approach to renewal. I think we can all take a page out of his book....
I really enjoyed Chad Husby’s commentary. I noticed how almost reverential he became discussing his special interest, the Ficus. His mention at 34:15 that pest tend to be kept in check by natural predators, etc. was noteworthy in that the tropical setting of the conservatory enables the desirable critters to flourish. ~ You know you’re at a world class botanical facility when they are growing plants that as yet have not been identified! ~ Similar to A. subulata, when propagating Norfolk Island Pine, Araucaria heterophylla , only a cutting of the terminal meristem , the top leader, will produce a normal tree. If you take cuttings from a branch they will grow misshaped.

Wow this is great. You talk in depth of all those beautiful plants. Looking forward to many of them becoming more common in horticulture.
One could spend days in there! Thanks for showing. Everything is beautiful.
I just want to say thank you so much for sharing these wonderful tours of the Botanical Gardens. I specially enjoy the Fairchild ones with Chad as your host. Specially in these times where we can't go out much, these types of videos are an escape into a beautiful place full of life and calm that is such a necessity for my mental health right now xD
Plants are so intelligents... They are using us to survive and colonize.... They are statics but they move... Using us... Nice
The conservatory looks great. im glad the conservatory is still standing
14:30 Most likely Aglaonema rotundum dark form. Different from the Aceh origin which has stripes on the vein, usually the southern origin have more solid colour. Stunning specimen! It's the mother species of all pink red Aglaonema these days..
Great episode in my neighborhood. Now I need to go back there to see the plants that I have missed since the last time I was there
Truly appreciate the content you've created here on this channel.

I met Chad yesterday at The Huntington with the IPS group and when I did, I knew I saw him somewhere else. It was on these videos!
Best Field Trip Ever! Thanks for this
YESSS!!! A part 2 🙏🏻😍 More amazing info on my favorite things on earth and my favorite place on earth! Thank you!!
I think I could safely assume to speak for most if not all viewers in asking for another episode of this exquisite collection. So many more treasures could still be documented in another visit.
More beautiful plants I need. Thanks for sharing this.
Beautiful
Fairchild is one of my favorite places, and that hanging plant section of the conservatory is my favorite part!! It really is a gem in our backyard here in South Florida! Great video Summer!! Thanks!
I loved this tour - great questions, great guide!
amazing textures and colors.
Wow, thanks for saving my day! 💚
Ficus have gold dots. Your videos get gold stars. ⭐️🌟⭐️🌟⭐️

loved this video!
Lovely video, love my tropical plants. Next time Summer comes to the UK, I hope she'll venture north to Scotland, we have a great botanic garden in Ediinburgh, with quite a few glasshouses.
Thank You for this long episode.
Thank you for this video. I got to see rare tropical plants.
I miss my hometown of Miami (South Florida) never visited and now that I live in Charlotte, NC and started to collect tropical plants (to remind me of FL) I miss home.
I really enjoy your videos that opens the floral world to the people. I would like to have a small leaved fig to hang on my wall. I really love anthuriums and just wait for one of mine to bloom.
Wow....keren..tanaman hiasnya. You garden good
Awesome stuff in that conservatory.
i went there and i'm in love with the butterfly garden

Very enjoyable thank you summer rayne
such a sweet man
don't know how but i missed this episode. love fairchilds i've been there many times. when i lived in south florida i grew several varieties of vireya. i had some success planting them in the tops of large staghorn (platycerium) ferns. medinillas also do very well in staghorns , i had one that was a good 6 foot across and bloomed almost year around.
I'm from the Philippines, Dillenia philippinensis is locally known as KATMON. I have encountered this tree in my Taxonomy course. The petals of its flower has a sour taste.
The Phlegmariurus being used in flash photography is very interesting. When I was in Uganda, I used Euphorbia tirucalli milk, as a fire starter. They use it as hedging, all over Uganda.
Hi Summer Rayne ! I’m in love with your videos. Thanks for such a wealth of information. Can you do a video talking about the difference between pothos and philodendron plants please?
wow I love this video just found your channel... I have loved plants forever but now really started to grow indoor plants as my kids are old enough :) to not pull the leaves :) beaut of a vid thank You will be watching your channel for more plant inspiration :) Slan Leat from Ireland X
I've been pronouncing selaginella way wrong... haha! Thank you for such a wonderful and informative video!
Thanks for this video Summer. Can you do a video on Ferns? I just love them.
Wonderfull
22:21 is me describing all my plants! :D
Q excelente esa fuente...
Being malaysian, that fig “mas cotek” is very common here. My parents got em 😅
Like how well Chad explain things, can sense his excitement! #indonesianPlantholic

I heard him say Mindanao, Philippines. I am from that place. :)
the homalomena at 17:19 is possibly H.wallisii
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The plant that was identified as geogenathus cillatis is geogenanthus poeppigii.
I’m obsessed with that aglaonema at 18:54 I tried googling it but nothing comes up!! Love your videos xx
That is yard work.. nothing ever stays stagnant
Great tour. No love for the fruit trees, though! I saw some special ones in the conservatory but all the focus was on ornamentals.
What the heck was that beautiful red stemmed palm-thing? My Lordy!

hi Summer, i wonder if you have any words to express in a video on invasive species ? i am from hawai'i, and seeing thise melastomes practicallly made me reach out to kill them ! ( miconia was an ornamental brought to tahiti, which has wiped out much of theforest there. ) it would be a good reminder for the general public to consider the actualities ( not that i know them all ) behind the offerings of commercial nurseries vs. ethics / threatened ecosystems. especially since big box stores are in farther and farther reaching areas. as a child in california i was also in looove with house plants. i even had a house plant coloring book 💚 and my friend and i spent hours and hours at the small local nursery (: what i later realized , growing up in the subtropics, is that many houseplants often survive in houses because in the environment, they are really tenacious. also an interesting fact ~ that shipping plants away from their region can relieve them of their native insect or disease , so that when they reach a new place free of these checks n balances, they can really get out of hand and become a threat. all that may or may not be relevant for you to present, but if youre interested, i'd look forward to it. 🌀🙏🌿
5:24 oml he mentioned the Marie Selby Botanical Gardens, that's where i go
Wish I can memorize all the latin named of the plants... Amazing.
It may too small to deal with for your time but have you ever been to the Missouri Botanical Garden in St Louis? They have a nice little Botanical garden with a lot of interesting species.
a plant from phuket !! wow that must have been hard to find !!!!!!!!!!!
I have been wanting to expand my knowledge on plant identification and was wondering if you could recommend some tools or reading that might help me learn more. Love your videos!!
