NSE Tropicals Tour-Part 1 - Ep 060
Last week Enid Offolter, founder of NSE Tropicals showed us how she propagates her Philodendrons, but a visit to her space wouldn't have been complete without a proper tour! There was just entirely too much to see (overwhelming might I say!) that I had to break the tour up across multiple episodes. This one is of her first (and oldest) greenhouse, which was still recovering after Hurricane Irma.
For those of you wondering, Enid offers a variety of hard-to-find plants on her website across a variety of families and genera, so you'll have to check it out here: bit.ly/2IdtVPA

everytime there is a terrible storm or in this case hurricane i think of my favorite sellers. praying for enid, paradise found, ecua, and other sellers that have a near and dear place in my heart !!
3 years ago you don’t even notice the “spiritus sancti” now it’s one of the most expensive plants!
this place might be plant heaven!
Enid is awesome! Her nursery is stunning, I could live there lol. I very much wish I could order from her but I live in Vancouver, Canada. Some of the varieties she sells are so unique!
Back when we do not have an idea of these now popular aroids😍💚
I've literally watched this same episode like 5 times over the past week. It's definitely my favorite. Her wonderful personality, infectious enthusiasm, and genuine love for her collection really comes through on the video. Thanks so much for posting!
After watching this I immediately went and ordered an Anthurium Veitchi. I'm so excited to get it. What a beautiful plant and amazing prices!!!
I think this has been the best show yet.
Gosh! I see those plant leaves and I get goose bumps,
16:34 Gregori Hambali is a famous plant hybrider from Indonesia.
I wish a little more time had been spent on the Spiritus Sancti - there are so very few of them in the world and it's such an amazing plant. What a beautiful collection!

Not anymore, they’re in tissue culture- so they’re now being mass produced by the thousands, if not millions now. The caveat that supply is being controlled to maintain high prices, a bit like how diamonds are not particularly rare, but their supply is controlled so demand exceeds the artificially restricted supply, so they can charge more for them

@@fabulously695 I did not know they were being tissue cultured now. Thanks for the knowledge! What you're saying about the pricing is so depressing, but here's hoping that in a few more years that might change too.
Fantastic place! Makes me want to move somewhere with high humidity.

Also, Summer, you are spoiling us. I started cheering when I saw the "part I" in the title, but then I saw you gave us an episode of almost 20 minutes. Christmas has come early. Thanks! Love you!

You are in the small camp that loves longer videos. Thanks for saying so!
Amazing collection. Love that you provide names. ❤🌸
Thank you both, Summer and Enid! Fascinating tour. I have an impetus like Enid's, getting most excited by the strangeness of a plant. Marigolds and roses bring joy, but success with a weirdo is so deeply satisfying!

totally! Thanks for sharing your sentiments.
what a small world - i am in the UK and i thought I recognised the name - it's because I supported them when a friend of mine shared the fundraiser for NSE after irma! SO glad to see it looking so lovely again.
i'm re-watching this series as i'm putting a above ground watergarden/fish pond in my garage for the winter coming here in MN. great channel BTW
my heart skips a beat every time Colombia is mentioned on your episodes! thank you so much for the videos and the plant publicity Summer. really love and admire you and what you do !!
I can't get enough of philodendrons.

The colour on the back of the leaves of some of those plants is just breathtaking.
"what kinda peperomia do you have?" *lights up with joy * ... You can tell they are one of your favorites just by how happy you look after asking
I watch this over and over again
Thanks for your inspiration...... mantaaaaaaaps.👍👍👍👍👍👍
The Holy Grail of Plants. The Philodendron spiritus sancti. Wish that y’all would have talked more about this one. It’s such a gorgeous plant. Price tag: $1,450
Lovely, bring on the plants! Never seen such lovely Anthuriums.
OH MY I had no idea NSE was located right down here in South FL!
Summer, this was awesome!!!. So many big, unknown (to me at least))and beautiful plants!! Thanks a lot for sharing❤❤❤
Enid is probably my spirit mother. She has GREAT taste in plants. I too love anthurium and philodendron. They're my first loves in plants.
You guys have such a great chemistry! I love hearing you talk about plants!
I recently got a gorgeous Anthurium veitchii from NSE mailed to me recently! Really excited to buy from Enid again! :) Love that you got to tour her space and share with us too! Thank you both so much!

She said people were asking if they could sleep in parts of the greenhouse. Okay I'm standing here at the door everybody get behind me and as you come in take a number. Paradise!
I’m Montagnard indigenous , I love all those plants.
Medinilla Gregory Hambalii was so stunning!! ❤️❤️❤️
This episode was fabulous....I am speechless...❤😍🌹
I wouldnt only set up a hammock I would set up a couch and a few pets and sanctuary comfirmed
Amazing collection!
Awesome collection.
Gorgeous. Plants i enjoy. This kind of videos thank you. For sharing.
I had no idea I had this treasure right here! Can't wait to check it out. Thank you for the fabulous content.
I would love to see Enid's growing facilities but I live in Ca. so it is hard to go there. Thanks for taking us there and seeing her plants and facilities. She has stuff that makes me want to build a 2000 sq. ft. hot house.
Great video. Loved the tour.
Wish I could live in this place! Sooooo beautiful! Thanks for sharing!!
Love your greenhouse tours...so much potential!
So beautiful
I miss this kind of contents from you sooo much!!! 😭 I hope I see one again soon.
LOVE ENID and these episodes. Bravo.
Beautiful place 😍 ☀️🙏
I wish I could get plants from Enid!! Wow, just WAOW, I just love watching these I learn something new and covet 20 new plants every time ;D thanks again!!! I also kind of love watching you two contemplate the meaning of life at 12:25 hahaha I feel like this is half of my existence, questioning our entire reality based on the physiology of plants and animals LOL someone send help
Wow dream plant collection ✨🌴🌞
i can't believe i live in florida but didn't have the opportunity to explore plant life as a child when we have such an ideal environment for them here
Great, great video. I love watching vids of your visit to NSE!
Brilliant video
Always, always, fun to go on tour with you! I look forward to your videos. Thanks.
Really interesting. Thanks for taking the time to do this video.
So so pretty 🥰
I should not have watched this video. I had a shade house, central Florida, and was so addicted to these plants. Oh boy, wish me luck.
Wow beautifull plant
I really want want an Anthurium Veitchii😭 But I’m just a teenager so I’m going to have to wait till the future.
OMG!!!! In this video you mentioned something that made me just sit up and fall out of my chair. You mentioned growth sugars and I have that on my piper plant and then you mentioned that you had a piper plant with the same thing. Mystery solved! Our water here is very hard water, and I mean extreme amounts of salts. So I transport water in a 35 gallon tank in my truck from down the street. I was worried that even though I was doing that, the salts were still collecting along the stems of the piper plant. I don't have to worry any longer. Wonderful videos! Keeping us educated.
It likely flowers in a coil to prevent other pollinators and things from getting inside. The ghost orchid is like this in a way. The ghost orchid has a very long flower so that only the one type of moth can pollinate it. These coils probably serve a similar purpose.
*12:29** its probably to help bring in pollinators since its longer. Also it can possible spiral in the direction of the hemisphere [ex: southern hem. counterclockwise. northern hem. clockwise]*
☁️🌿 now I always try and have a second back-up houseplant.😊 I am having problems growing my cheese vine plants again, they do fine & then they just start shriveling back😭
I really enjoyed watching this episode. Thank you for taking me there 👍
I m start love to see all about plants😍😍😍 its beautiful plants
I spotted a monstera Variegata! I want!
Just watching this makes me so excited..wish i could collect some of those Philos
If, like, Facebook, one could choose ❤️ in stead of, just, a 👍🏽 I’d hit that love ❤️ button! Great NSE Tour!
Beautiful,amazing plants
Awesome video! Love their plants.
One of my favorite episodes😍😍😍
Beautiful collection of plants,Thanks for that amazing garden tour.
This is great, I live in NYC / Brooklyn. The relative humidity in the winter goes down to 3 / 5%. I have collected Ficus species that start growing aerial roots during the humid summer months, but after October it gets dry as the desert. Many Aroids need humidity. The common Monstera deliciosa seems to do well no matter of what. But those variegated Anthuriums died. I grew some bird's nest Anthurium type from seeds I found but sold it as it grew too wide. That one did very well. For me plants and orchids from Mexico (even Yucatan) seem to do best. Plants from Ecuador etc are a lot harder as probably they require constant high humidity and cool nights, while the heat in my apartment in the winter can reach 85 / 90 F coupled with low humidity it is a no no. But I just swithced to LED grow light fixtures and seaweed extract and I noticed crazy root growth. But this is great. I love heat and humidity more than centralized heat and AC.
Loved the practical talk,we all loss plants in our learning curve,thanks
So far the most incredible collection filmed by you!
Great video, thank you.

About 12:40, they ask why would there be a curling? One possible solution is that curl caught the eye of a collector and the mutation advantage is human preference.
I like anturium veitchii very fantastic

love this tour great point abt these plants not exists in the natural habitat but in my grow tent that’s kinda sad :’(
Awesome Tour..very educational+ inspiring to ha e in one's Ho🏡me Garden if possible👍
By the way, I also found interesting the fact of growing this kind of plants within glass. Maybe you can explain more details about alternative growing methods and how to choose the best? Cheers!
Ur tour as always amazing, thx a lot👍😍😍😍
There are so many rare plants being constantly lost from purposely burning I virgin jungles and secondary jungles in Brazil and Kalimantan in Borneo, I wish more explorers would collect them and grow them to preserve plants that would be lost forever. Plants cannot run away from fires, unlike animals which can mostly escape. There are also selfish gardeners who prefer to keep rare plants to themselves and when rare plants die for whatever reason, no one else has them to continue their existence.
Anthurium recavum is now on the wish list :)
Nice tropical tour, thank you.
TWENTY MINUTES! THANK YOU SO MUCH UGH

Great collection! NSE tropicals nursery has always been an inspiration and looking forward to create a small space with these rare aroids. Veitchii and regale’s prices are skyrocketing in asia and its getting hard to get a hold of one.
wow! amazing plants! love it! thank you!
Amazing! Thank you.
Awesome!
Awesome video! One of my favorite places to order plants ❤️
You should do a newer tour of this place to see what new plants they have now!
found this so interesting.. was in ecuador 5 mnths from nov 2017 and then in peru from nov. last year to december .. found peru much milder .. ecuador can be too hot.. but i visited a little rainforest.. with so many unusual plants.. we can only grow indoors here in uk. so i just noticed, i would have been still in ecuador when this video was made.

We're all sitting here with our heads in their hands contently listening and wondering when the home videos of your travels will be shown.
Omg!!!!!!! So many of my wishlist is here but prolly won’t have a chance to get my hands on it cause its so expensive!!
I want the same plant Haven but with edible plants. 😍
mindblowing plants....so beautiful the anthurium magnificum...can you let us know how the plants root and grow on the wall
HOW could the interviewer be more excited about the Veitchii than the spiritus sancti🥺
Gregori Hambali is a great Indonesian botanist
