  • If you've enjoyed tours with Chad Husby at Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden on this channel in the past, then you will likely enjoy this comprehensive and meditative 1-hour botanical tour featuring over 60 plants. Has elements of botanical ASMR, but largely more meditative in nature.
    Please keep in mind that this film was done pre-coronavirus, so wearing masks and staying a 'safe' distance was not required, but thank you to all who express concern.

    it's astonishing what this man knows about plants. And the respect and love and tenderness in the way he talks about these plants, and touches them. And the plants all look so perfect, so undamaged by insects, like if they all were planted just before the video was taken. And very beautiful landscape designed (or how to call it). By far the most beautiful garden I saw so far.

    This is so gorgeous. He reminds me of my 'grandpa'. We're not related by blood, but he was a close family friend with the sweetest soul ever. When I visited his home in Japan at 10 years old, he showed me this tranquil little greenhouse he and his wife set up when they first got married. It immediately felt like home. It was filled in every corner with all sorts of tropical plants you could find in Southeast Asia, hanging plants scraping my face gently as I walked through exploring every interesting leaf I could find. He broke off a leaf from his alocasia and gave it to me to press in a book. A month after we got home, we were informed that he passed away after an accident while climbing the Japanese Alps. I don't exactly remember how I reacted since then, but I found that leaf, beautifully preserved, three years ago today. I've been collecting plants since then.
    As an under-20 year old plant lady from the Philippines, this is my dream. To curate a beautiful greenhouse, protecting endemic and rare flora and fauna and spend most of my life exploring and educating others about the importance of preserving forests in the country. Right now I'm working towards a degree in social studies as a compromise with my parents, but hopefully I get to use this as a tool to start advocacy work with the people who have just as much passion for plants and nature. I always get told I'm such a 'grandma' for having so many plants, but I like to think it has made me a better person, much like all of the other plant folks here 😊 getting an alocasia sanderiana in a few days, maybe I'll name him after my ojiisan?

Synchronizing herself with nature's rhythm, attempt after attempt until finally witnessing the moonflower and showing it to the world for the very first time. What a demonstration of perseverance, humility, true respect, and devotion!

    The 'Bauhinia' at 19:38 is a Phanera. If it came from either Sabah or the Philippines, then it's likely P. aherniana. I have seen the species in my numerous walks in the forest. Freycinetia cumingiana is known here (the Philippines) as 'Stairway to Heaven' and was popular during the previous decade. It's a very beautiful species when in bloom!

And Summer, as always thank you deeply for the work and effort you put into creating these videos. You provide for many of us a window into a world we would otherwise never get to see, as people who love plants and have them in our homes, but don’t necessarily have a profession in botany/horticulture and access to these networks. A private tour of such a fantastic place, alongside a true expert whom I would otherwise never get a chance to hear from. It’s just magical. 🙏 💗

    This is the Best video yet about any botanical conservatory. I think because there wasn't any conversation happening to distract from the information that is trying to be taught. I just loved every minute of the tour. Thanks again 😊

    He blinks a bit because he is thinking and talking.
    He cares that the information is accurate.
    A scientist.

    I have always thought ferns were my favorite. Then you show plants that are older than ferns, unobtainable to the common .Much harder to grow! And are super rare! But those are the kind I love of course. They make me happy🥀🐸

    Chad voice is ASMR and meditative indeed. I just leave this video running while WFH. Helps me focus on my works. I add this video to my collection, as it is likely to aid in deep sleep too. Looks like he blends in with all of his plants and they like him.... definitely one of the best plant video I have seen so far
    👍👍👍👍👍

    It is good to see that the Rare Plant area us alive and well. In 1992 right after Hurricane Andrew hit, I manuevered my motorcycle in between the downed Banyan trees lining Old Cutler road and volunteered in helping run cables across the previous roof of the Rare Plant Area to protect the then exposed from full sun. Good memories.

    Beautiful presentation with affection for plants. Plants are also God's creations like us. So they should be tackled with respect. Thank you

    I could listen to Chad all damn day, I know this is supposed to be a 'bedtime' themed video but nothing excites me more than seeing him wander around Fairchild and talk about aroids and gingers- I just can't believe he didn't mention Ficus deltoidea even once!!!

    i love this place i would always take my mom i love the butterfly encounter. aside from of course all the plants and trees. this would be my dream yard. my home town theres something special about that area of miami as far as plant life northern area of miami is more of a prairie . but you wouldnt know it now aday in the late 70s and 80s you could tell by the open fields pre 1983 before 1st realestate boom.
