Stunning! Thank you so much for this video :-)

So calming, I miss palm house, thankyou so much.

Fabuloso video, bellísimas palmeras y plantas... gracias

Lovely. 🙏

If there is paradise, this is what it probably looks like.

Thank you for sharing. Remarquable full stop but even more insightful when one knows the size today of some of the specimen filmed

Same for me too - thank you!

Would love to know some of the engineering behind this - for example im guessing those cast iron covers in the walkway are a drainage channel? How does the water drain from the beds into that whilst stopping the soil going down and then does that channel go to a mains drain or a soak away?

Great walk through. I never knew you could walk around the top! How is the palm house heated?

Thank you! The glasshouse is heated using the original underfloor pipes which circulate hot water!

Reminds me of when I visited in 2019. What camera do you use Richard ?

We use biological control! For gnats we used a predatory mite that feeds on the larvae.

@@thebotanicalgardener9401 thanks for the info! can you recommend anything for our home conservatories? is it a form of bacillus thuringiensis? Im in Australia and we are in winter atm battling them with things like dish soap which isn't doing anything and having to top layer an inch is not really ideal for us. BTi is available in small quantities at 20$ a bag is not very cost efficient long term. I recently tried neem cake as a top layer but it is super hydrophobic and was suffocating the soil in plastic pots, a lot of mold would develop on it also (not to mention the interesting odour lol) then when I pulled off the top layers there were gnats and visible larvae under it...so not sure what happened there as I read it's supposed to help deter the fly and kill off the sciaridae larvae? wish I could work in an amazing place like that! what a life 😍

@@r3ck17rick7 For gnats I recommend a predatory mite called Hypoaspis miles which feeds of fly larvae and doesn't have any negative affects on anything else. It is a very beneficial biological control! I hope this is helpful! We always experiment and try new things. 👍☺

Although this is large and spacious, I find the straight paths and borders too austere and not natural and that upper balcony walkway looks a bit rusty and precarious 😳. The U.S. Missouri Botanical Garden Climatron tropical greenhouse has natural winding and gently changing slopes, natural looking waterfall and stream vignettes and occasional benches so young and old can stop for a moment to rest and reflect, you should visit it sometime 😁. Both are nice and very beneficial to city dwellers especially, but very different in style.

Is there a cafeteria in this wonderful place?

There is! In fact across Kew there are five different cafe's :) Just across from the Palm House there is The Botanical Brasserie

I hope everyone on the planet will develop love for nature, because some people I know won't even plant a single green in their home because they think that soil is dirty and plants are dirty because they have insects, stupid people
