Hortus Botanicus Tour - Plant One On Me - Ep 075

[@bleedingcolours6817]

I love that you let the guy speak his entire passages without chopping them up. That's so rare on youtube lately. So many content creators cut and chop sentences to make them faster and more hype.

[@summerrayneoakes]

I find it hard chopping the edits up because everything my interviewees say are so interesting. Glad you feel the same way as well. Thanks for sharing.

[@aleisterbroodryk4263]

i live in South Africa so it is really interesting to see people actually be interested in the plants that we have in our yards.

[@aleisterbroodryk4263]

NakedAndLaughing sadly I do not have one, but that would be an amazing addition to my succulent & cactus garden!

[@summerrayneoakes]

Yes, I was intrigued by how they wanted to maintain that connection. I love asking how they make choices of what plants get chosen. There's only so much space!

[@aleisterbroodryk4263]

It was an amazing video! And it is a new addition to my bucket list.

[@mattywyche7545]

i was born in joburg but im living in uk currently and an avid collector of houseplants so im always scoping around for south African species too make my space more like my home country

[@aleisterbroodryk4263]

Matty Wyche that's great! Luckily there is a bit more rain than in joburg 😂

[@petercardona1559]

I was there in the 90s and it was absolutely stunning and rich in history. If you're a plant lover this should be a pilgrimage on your Bucket List. Thanks for taking me back, Summer! 😊💕 🌱

[@summerrayneoakes]

My pleasure Peter.

I'm from Amsterdam. It is so much fun seeing you in our beloved Hortus, Summer. I actually got married in the Hortus in august of 2018. It has a magical and serene ambiance, which just added to our beautiful green-filled day. There is so much to learn, admire and marvel about at the Hortus. I would like to invite anyone visiting Amsterdam to come see this little slice of heaven. And by doing so supporting their work and making a small contribution to their continued existing. Love en groetjes uit Amsterdam

Visiting Amsterdam for the first time in a few weeks and plan to visit Hortus. So happy for this video. 😊

[@kathygilbreath6073]

Wow what a gorgeous place. Love the old huge plants and the age of this place. Thanks so much.

[@summerrayneoakes]

[@laurinevangijn]

Live the video! I live in Amsterdam and have visited this botanic garden, but was unaware of it's specific history. Really nice to hear it being told in an interview like this!

[@laurinevangijn]

[@TheDesius]

Next time you should go to the Hortus botanicus in Leiden. Its actually one of the oldest botanical gardens in the world

[@TheSarahLindy]

That agave! WOW!!!

[@oliver.quantiles]

Visiting Amsterdam next month and I definitely will visit Hortus.

[@summerrayneoakes]

It'll be a lot greener when you're there!

[@azdesertrunner56]

Thank you again...

[@summerrayneoakes]

You're welcome.

[@zacharydickson5184]

you should look into visiting phipps conservatory and botanical gardens in pittsburgh!! it's such a great place, with a large collection!

[@zacharydickson5184]

they are constantly starting new projects and in my opinion, the facility is almost unparalleled

[@GreenCanvasInteriorscape]

Is this part 1? Lots more there... What's in the glass with water case behind the encephalartos at 8:20?

[@alfonsoahumada9709]

I want to see Aralias! Please 😊😚😗 I used to have many in Mexico ,I miss them 😔☹

[@rottenjuan]

Does anyone know if you can fertilize with hydro spikes? or... If i have a grow light can I still fertilize during winter?

[@plantsman01]

Why did you not visit the botanical garden of Leiden? they are THE oldest and have a huge collection of really rare species, some grown no where else on this planet.

[@MissSephira]

Would love to visit that place! x

[@summerrayneoakes]

Good bucket list place!

[@JXZ-JAM]

Why do they have a cycad cone in a tank with water in the background? What was that all about?

[@RadioImmunoAssay2]

So that tree is about as old as the United States 😲

[@summerrayneoakes]

True!

[@mtownz6215]

Shortest tour yet.

[@108329876]

[@jessiepatl.2425]

Can you share how you compost in your apartment?

[@panorama3332]

[@andreaburtondesign]

Where do you get your overalls?

[@daisyshishtar7701]

The queen has upload 😍🙌🏽🌱

[@summerrayneoakes]

haha.

[@princesslunakusuma8322]

niiiiceeee , i have some small brunfelsias too , they smell wonderful

[@summerrayneoakes]

couldn't get enough of the smell. Wanted to bottle it up!

[@saritafae7930]

As an American that is employed by a Dutch institute and does research in South Africa, I hear the content here as a super whitewashed history. Where is the history of collecting alongside the atrocities of colonialism, obtainment of land and its knowledge through forcible abstraction? Rather “our history” that your Dutch expert retells is praised for preservation of collection, that is control over collection for hundreds of years.

[@TheDesius]

He did talk about the Dutch east indies and that back then it was used to show their riches. But why would he say more about it then that. Its a botanical garden for studying and preserving plants. Its about the plants

[@anitaberendsen2425]

A little bit ashamed about that guy. The Netherlands have a very evil past with their VOC. Nothing to be proud of.
