Thank you so very much for highlighting my city and these beautiful houses. I've been visiting them just about every spring since I was nine years old. I plan on volunteering there when I retire in two years. ❤❤❤
I'm so happy to see Baltimore represented on your channel! Rawlings is 5 minutes from our house, we've taken family photos there and have had many Girl Scout & school trips there - we love it so much, and always take out-of-towners there.
Thanks for showing this beautiful Baltimore Conservatory!! It's gorgeous & a sentimental favorite for me because I was born outside of Baltimore on a military base & haven't lived there since early grammer school years!! It was like you provided a very beautiful virtual tour from my original hometown!! ❤️
Love those beautiful structures and plant. I have especially enjoyed watching the ochirds collection. Thanks for sharing this beautiful place. My second favorite is Biltmore estate that you also shared and I visited in past.
Thanks for the tour. Was great to hear some of the maintenance required to keep the plants happy here. I think my favorite was the Petrea volubilis, the purple wreath. I've never seen that before, probably because it grows so big in the wild and prefers a warmer climate.
Hi. Loved the show. Wow. What a place. The olive tree, if you csn increase its sunlight and heat it will definitely bloom. I live in south africa and mines outside, temps gets upto 40°c in summer. And ours blooms. Not sure the age. I have been in the house for 3 years.
What a great showcase of Baltimore's beautiful Rawlings Conservatory! Also, I am really pumped to see the f-ake (fake cake!) I created at minute 9:50. 😁
Arbutus unedo is native to southern Ireland along with other parts of Europe, it grows happily in Southern England, introduced. It must be fairly hardy and does make "strawberry" fruits but they are quite acidic. Julia is lovely and very knowledgable! Thanks for the tour!
Summer please inform Julia that she is correct in what she says about the matter on the non flowering Olive tree. The area of the Conseravtory in which the Olive tree is planted isn't appropriate in order for the tree to flower. From what I can see from the video the Olive tree is planted next to other trees, maybe shaded by them, not allowing it to grow, spread and breathe. But most importantly there isn't enough sunlight from above. It looks like this area receives "defaced sunlight" from the roof, as the glass seems to be opaque. Olive trees need huge amounts of pure sunlight in order to flower. So it doesn't matter if they groom it or fertilise it.
For your information, the mediterranean tree you forgot the name of is called strawberry tree, or arbutus berry, while the 'certain' Jewish holiday also recalled is Sukkot, or feast of tabernacles (the name of the citrus fruit, or Citrus medica, is etrog)
Great tour, thanks. Wrt the "sago palm" at 19:45: Many genera appear in the Cycadaceae family, which are conifers and not palms. Cycas and Dioon are just two of the many genera. Most of us have probably seen Cycas revoluta (king sago) at garden centers who order tropicals from Florida in spring. But the plant at 19:45 is not a king sago, I believe. There are so many cycad look-alikes and it's tough to discern in a video, but let a non-expert submit a theory: If the edges of the leaflets have small spinous processes, then it may be Dioon spinulosum. If the margins are smooth, then I think it is Cycas circinalis (queen sago).
Concerning the non-blooming mango: in the tropics they tend to bloom when they get some drought stress. Here in Costa Rica they will tend to bloom based on when the dry season kicks in, even skipping a year sometimes if the rain doesn't let up. Also, it used to be common to force a bloom by girdling a branch to stress it out. Though as far as I understand it common practice these days is to give it a foliar application of a potassium nitrate solution. What might be the biggest problem is the reduced light though. Mangos want full sun.
Julia was great. I don’t think she had a precise idea who Summer is or her body of work because she seemed genuinely surprised and thrilled by her botanical knowledge base and that’s kinda her highly-identifiable jam so that tickled me.
She’s got a very Baltimore sensibility telling it like it is and not trying to embellish. I love that.

Hello, I really enjoyed listening to the lovely young lady. She's very knowledgeable & knows her stuff. Absolutely beautiful..Thank You
19:48 Great shot Sander!! mesmerizing
I visited for the first time several years ago and got really hooked on plants

Such an asset to have nearby! I was shocked to hear there used to be one of these in every major park. Can't believe this is the last one standing!
Love this greenhouse! The ol architecture is so amazing!
This was an amazing tour one of the best! Julia did a great job explaining very pleasant to listen to
Agreed. Julia is very well-spoken, informative, and was nice and casual to chat with too.
Absolutely enjoyed the video, always appreciate the plant information.
I'm from Maryland and worked nearby in Baltimore for a few years. This place is so beautiful and it's so cool to see you there!!
Love Julia. Very informative. Nice personality.
I said out loud to the screen, "I like her"
My ficus pumila does the same exact thing. A beast growing over our wall into three other yards! No one minds 😉
A classical BG which has a timeless feel. Love it!
Thank you for the tour!! ❤
My pleasure!! So glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.

Lovely tour!! I love these type videos. Thanks so much for sharing.
Another wonderful video- thanks!
You're most welcome.

Same with the mango. More light and heat.
Summer is gorgeous.
There must be someone out there, who can save these beautiful plants from going to the chipper!

More, please.
I love this Conservatory. Thanks for video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
“So where will they go then? Who will be fostering them? ❤😊” “they will be ground into dust.” 😱 hahaha
Love

I believe that it needs to have a cold period to bloom
15:00 I got to go to Logee's for the first time last month after it was recommended by so many people. It's about 30min north of the casinos.
For your information, the mediterranean tree you forgot the name of is called strawberry tree, or arbutus berry, while the 'certain' Jewish holiday also recalled is Sukkot, or feast of tabernacles (the name of the citrus fruit, or Citrus medica, is etrog)
Summer I’m looking for a video on the classification process and scientific naming of plants
Can’t find one
My olive needs a lot of light to bloom
Great tour, thanks. Wrt the "sago palm" at 19:45: Many genera appear in the Cycadaceae family, which are conifers and not palms. Cycas and Dioon are just two of the many genera.

What might be the biggest problem is the reduced light though. Mangos want full sun.
I think the olives need colder temps to induce flowering.

They should keep the palm stumps and have someone carve them into tiki's
Julia was great. I don’t think she had a precise idea who Summer is or her body of work because she seemed genuinely surprised and thrilled by her botanical knowledge base and that’s kinda her highly-identifiable jam so that tickled me.
Dann, the horticulture assistance is so hot and cute. 😍
The cycad was misidentified. It's a dioon, not a sago palm.
doesnt fruit tree need full sun ? , maybe that what the mango need , a different spot might work
So hard to hear that the "big stuff" is getting turned into wood chips.
Wood chip can help grow more life else were, its a cycle.
Too fast movement on the camera to the extent video gets blurry. Otherwise awesome content.
I'll let Sander know next time he films to keep it slow! ;)
I want Julia, shes just my type. 🤗
