  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 ก.ย. 2024
  • An earlier tour of Longwood Garden's Conservatory strategically skipped their newly designed orchid house-but don't worry-we circled back with orchid grower, Greg Griffis, for a proper tour of the house and the myriad greenhouses that house their larger orchid collection-some of which are from the early 1900s.

    Thank you for this beautiful tour of our Orchid House. It's always great to see Greg light up with enthusiasm when he shares orchid stories with other passionate plant people. You really captured some great information about our orchid collection, our greenhouses, and all the amazing stories about the world of orchids. We look forward to hosting you again!

      Awesome tarp doors! They remind me of the Star Wars doors - they sound similar to some of the doors in KotOR (@32:45).
      I Would love to see a 30ft Sobralia! (@44:10)
      Looking forward to Orchids being adapted/selected to epiphytically grow on every plant/surface in Longwood! :D
      ⸘Y'all have given me an excellent reason to come visit out east with the family, thank you‽

    I've become obsessed with orchids and I love growing them. Such an interesting challenge. I was already thinking I needed to take a trip to Longwood but now I MUST GO ASAP. Thanks for this vid. ETA: I love this guy! His knowledge and enthusiasm is fantastic. I could listen to him tell me about orchids for HOURS.

    As someone who's killed so many orchids, I'm always in awe of people who can grow a collection of them. They're such fascinating plants. Also, it kind of makes me feel better that even Longwood has to have a specialist take care of them haha.

    A couple of things; when i was in high school i would skip school but not to go hang out at the mall or at home, i did what my friends called "educational trips" Longwood Gardens was one of my go to places to skip school. And it was super cheap for students to go. 5 bucks. And also i would skip school to go the baltimore aquarium.
