- Welcome to Chenshan Botanical Garden in Shanghai. This sanctuary for over fifteen thousand plant species spans over 200 hectares of gorgeous landscapes, themed areas, and enormous greenhouses, Chenshan Botanical Garden is a captivating blend of natural beauty and scientific exploration.
Our personal guide, Carrie, walks us through this immense park, imparting her impressive knowledge of the garden and the plants that live here.
Our tour begins in a huge tropical greenhouse filled with gorgeous ornamental plants like bromeliads, palms, and carnivorous plants.
Then we moved on to an impressive arid greenhouse to see some cactii and succulents, masterfully desertscaped to impress our eyes.
I was pleasantly surprised that there’s a second tropical greenhouse with stronger emphasis on ethnobotany.
Finally, we roam the outdoors to visit some of the other attractions.
This is easily one of the best garden I’ve ever been to. Every corner was passionately and meticulously curated to educate and inspire visitors about the wonders of the botanical world.

Thanks for sharing....beautiful botanical garden...wow!
Thank you 🥰🥰
Love this, Awesome, crazy, fantastic Botanical garden. Wow...
Thank you. I cant believe I havent heard of it before the visit!
The desert garden is out of this world!
😀😀
You are right, Sean, this has to be the most beautiful botanic garden ever! From the shape of the greenhouses and the stunningly creative displays of curated plants to the beautiful outdoor scenes, this beats them all!!
Thank you. Hope this episode shines some light to this underrated garden ❤️
What a spectacular day! Thanks so much for this adventure. Never heard of this place. It's good to broaden our perspective of this beautiful planet. Interesting, too, that Keri said Phalaenopsis orchid is the most intelligent plant, which led me to research briefly, to learn that orchids are smart because "of their ingenious ability to trick insects and people into helping with their pollination and transport". Also shocking to learn is that orchids, like cycads, are dinosaur-era plants. Superimpose that idea with the idea that the orchids are the most advanced form of plant life, while the most advanced form of animal life cannot manage to respect this beautiful home we share.
Omg you have a way with words. I learnt some things from this comment. Thank you ❤️
China does it best! 🇨🇳🏆🥇I really am impressed and inspired! I could spend a month alone admiring the Cacti. Their target group is children and teenagers. Brilliant! I’m so grateful and blessed to be able to raise two very small girls to know/love plants. Thank you Keri, 🙏Xièxiè. Thank you Sean! As always. Perfect!
Thank you, thats so sweet!
China does it best! lets not forget this country is a dictature where all opposant are jailed, does not respect human rights and is suspected of genocid, For all these reasons I would not make a video about it.
A beautiful botanical garden. Very lovely place. Thanks for sharing. 👍🏾Video. June in The Junegle 🇺🇸 🪴Happy Planting🌿
Thank you 😀
I’m very, very impressed! Gorgeous indoor gardens! Wow! 😮

Thank you for sharing this amazing and beautiful botanical garden! I wish Irene from Leafing Around is with you, we miss her blogs recently, I hope she is ok, thank you. Your guest is incredibly knowledgeable! Also, Monty Don from UK's Gardeners World will be amazed, hopefully he will see this video! Thank you.
Whoaaa thank you for writing in, as a member you are the first handful to see this. I hope the other viewers will have positive response when it airs this weekend. This is very encouraging. 😀

Thank you Sean for guiding us to these wonderful places in the world we never knew about.
Thank you. I am so grateful that she hosted us.
Thank you for an amazing tour 😀 It is an amazing place 💕😀🇨🇦
Thank you ❤️❤️
Amazing! The greenhouse structures are awesome and all the plants look so well cared for and immaculately arranged, as do the outside areas. Tremendous diversity as well.
Yes my jaw was on the floor the whole time. Ive not seen this level of care in any botanical garden before. Not even close.
Awesome creation of CREATOR.
❤️❤️❤️
Wow..am speechless ..thank you for sharing such wonders😊
Thank you
This garden was beyond my imagination and I’ve added this to my list of “must” places to visit.
Keri is a brilliant young lady and an excellent guide with her unlimited knowledge of the Shenshaw botanical operation.
Thank you Sean for another one of your amazing tours!💚
Thank you ❤️
Thank you Sean for sharing such a great place. Love the dedication and love of the ppl towards plants
You’re welcome
breathtaking! I could not close my mouth the whole time I watched this extraordinary video 😮. visiting this botanical garden should be on everyone’s bucket list 😀 Thank you for another exceptional video.
My thoughts exactly! Thank you
Thank you for taking us again to a wonderful destination! I need to watch this again to fully absorb everything there can be found. Also the expertise of the guide truly elevates the value of what can be learned from your visit. Also, it is lovely to hear the level of enthusiasm and awe you experience every now and then, it's like a small child finding a gem that meets their imagination.
Thank you, this comment is so encouraging ❤️❤️
So glad I watched this. I went to botanical gardens as a little girl and recall it fondly. How nice to have seen this one.
Thank you, glad I could bring you 😀
COCONUT PALMS IN A GLASS HOUSE.....IMPRESSIVE.
THE PALM CONSERVETARY IS STUNNING
😀😀
This is so beautiful with so many varieties of plants & all are so well taken care of and are thriving healthily. It puts the Flower Dome at Gardens by the Bay (S'pore) to shame as the latter relies heavily on the plant exhibits while the resident plants are not really thriving & there is less varieties of plants there.
Gardens by the bay is largely a tourist attraction with almost no effort to educate and conservation. Although it does a good job to get people closer to nature and attracts large volumes of people 😀
You can tell the people who curated these are extremely passionate
Yes I spoke to some of them while walking on the field actually. They were so eager to share their knowledge but I had to keep moving.
I love this botanic garden so much , thank you sean!!!
You’re most welcome
I really appreciate you sharing this beautiful garden! Thank you and keep up the good work! I Love your videos!
Thank you 😀😀
I love these tours. I like seeing different examples on how things are grown and displayed. Great filming! Thank you.
Yaye, Im glad to have a platform to show them!
Though I'm just looking at the screen, everywhere my eyes landed is so captivating😊 and
No flaws at all, That's every garden owner wish to have👌😊
Yes its flawless here 😀😀
That’s an awesome botanical garden! Thanks for taking us along Sean!
You’re welcome Carol
What a beautiful garden! I'd love to see it in person someday!
Jope you can make it! 😀
Thanks!
Whoaaa thank you 🙏🏽🙏🏽
What an amazing garden. Thank you for showing us such a wonderful place. I have learned to much about tropical gardening from your videos 😊
Thank you for coming along! ❤️
Hello. I only recently found your channel and I have to say what a blessing it is! I'm a plant lover... It's become habit to watch your tours every morning as I prepare for work. Thank you.

I had no idea this botanical garden existed, what a wonderful video and thanks for the tour!
Yeahhh me too! This place deserve way more recognition.
rất nhiều cây xanh, rất đẹp cam ơn bạn
❤️❤️
What an absolute amazing place! I can’t imagine what was like in the space. The glass alone is a large piece of art! I’d love if you got to speak with people doing pollination and see what’s behind the scenes!
Yeahhh a lot is going on behind the scenes in this garden. The few people I met along the way (not filmed) were very young and passionate.
Wow! I'd love to visit someday : ) I love how the director planted the conifer trees spaced so that they could grow happily up to 100 years in the future. Beautiful!
😀😀 thank you
I live close to the Monrovia nursery and it’s cool to see their plants half way around the world ✨
😀😀
At 33.15 She gives an example of a very popular orchid in Chinese new year: 大花惠兰 （da hua hui lan) Cymbidium hybrids which produce relatively larger blooms.
Thanks for sharing this ❤️
Assalamualikum
Very impressive and very beautiful wonderful garden❤
Excellent 🌹👍
Quetta city. Pakistan
Thank you 🪴❤️
Thoroughly enjoyed it, Sean. I had to get my macbook to enjoy it in a bigger screen 😊
Another one to add to my “botanical places to visit” list. I love the idea of the lonely tree or more so comfort tree.
Thank you so much to you and Kerri. Love every bit of it ☺️
Very kind of you to write in. Thank you ❤️
Thank you so much for this tour. What an amazing place, impressive huge variety of plant around the world. So glad to see the development not only in the major field but also into the horticulture and landscape. Fascinating build and made in China, definitely will be on my visiting list.
Thank you. I hope you get the chance to visit 😀 I skimmed through a lot of interesting details
Nice. I admire with their appreciation toward plants with no specific target focussing only the rare ones or the varigata ones like we all here in Indonesia. I even don't see any biilitiae varigata or monstera varigata shown. I like the landscape of dinosaurs forest section. It give me inspiration and ideas for my (future) hone garden design. I need to start eyeing encephalartos and cycas more
Thank you 😀 encephalartos are so expensive in Indonesia
I so enjoyed tagging along with you on this tour! Very interesting!
thank you ❤️
Thank you for this amezing garden tour 🙏🙏🙏🙏🤗 so so beautiful and blissful 🤗🤗🤩🤩

Thank you ❤️
At 37.50 she was talking about 'shui shan', latin name: Metasequoia glyptostroboides, Chinese kanji: 水杉, English name: the dawn redwood. Together with Sequoia sempervirens (coast redwood) and Sequoiadendron giganteum (giant sequoia) of California, M. glyptostroboides is classified in the subfamily Sequoioideae of the family Cupressaceae. Although it is the only living species in its genus, three fossil species are known as well. It is the sole living species of the genus Metasequoia, one of three genera in the subfamily Sequoioideae of the family Cupressaceae. It now survives in the wild only in wet lower slopes and montane river and stream valleys in the border region of 3 Chinese provinces. Although the shortest of the redwoods, it can grow to 167 ft (51 m) in height.
Oh this is so important! Thank you for sharing it!

what an amazing tour; i appreciate that you add the endemic origin of the plants as well!
Yeah I think it really gives perspective when we note down where the plants come from to converge in this space 😀
Excellent ❤

Hello from New York city!! Thanks so much for sharing this experience. I felt I was right there with you enjoying all that beauty ❤
Hello. I miss NYC so much. I used to live there 7 years 🥹
Thank you so much for sharing this with us. The discipline and commitment of the garden staff is admirable and clearly it pays off in how well the displays look and how they are also designed to be educational. While it may be too early to tell since the garden has only been open for 13 years, the director seems to have a long term vision for maintaining the quality for many decades to come. For institutions of this scale there needs to be serious long term planning, and China seems quite capable in that regard. Love that they also focus on getting younger people and children interested, as you say, it would be nice to have gotten into the world of plants from an earlier age.
Final random thoughts: I loved the guide's "Cactus" hat. The spination on the large barrel cacti was a little "weak" but the smaller plants looked great and the labels/barcodes were a great touch. That euphorbia aeruginosa clump was gorgeous.
Thank you, i enjoyed reading this!
Muito obrigado pela experiência.
Thank you too ❤️
I need to make a trip to Shanghai. I especially enjoyed the carnivorous plant room and the desert greenhouse. Thank you for taking us on this trip.
Thank you ❤️
Assistindo do Brasil, excelente vídeo, parabéns
