Private Tour at Monrovia Growing Facility 😱 pt.1 || Visit Our Garden

[@sabrinassuburbangarden9448]

Thanks, Monrovia, for a behind the scenes tour. Thanks, Robbie, for taking us along.

[@ruthd2261]

Wow! I will not complain about some plant prices ever again! Sooo much goes into this that I never realized! Thank you so much, Robbie, for including us!

[@Lets_see_how_this_plays_out]

I agree! This definitely changes how I view Monrovia plants, well worth the cost.

[@grisespino5342]

I was thinking the same thing. Felt a bit guilty.

[@MonroviaPlants]

We're so excited you could come visit! We loved having you join us.

[@StaceyFernandes-ek9ks]

Add to my last comment Rob you deserve to be there. You are hard worker and you should feel special because you are a very good influencer. Congratulations for making the big time brother.

[@NormaSanchez-bc5bs]

Bravo to the Monrovia craftsmen!!❤

[@majorwrex]

I love this!! I am so happy you were invited to take a tour and were able to take us along. Thank you Robbie! ❤

[@GardenerPhyl]

That was utterly fascinating! Your enthusiasm and fantastic filming made for an amazing video and a great start to my day. Thanks Robbie, you’re the best!

[@iyzabel]

13:00 Wall-E !!!

[@karenmiller6229]

Like a kid in a candy shop and I love it! You are so fun to listen to and watch. Beautiful plants and flowers, wish Texas heat would allow some of them!!

[@greenthumbelina7331]

Robbie, you are extremely fortunate to be able to see the Monrovia Growing Facility firsthand, and I'm so happy for you. I can hardly wait to see tomorrow's video.

[@novellabloom5825]

Thank you so much Robbie and Monrovia for taking us along! ❤

[@mickidonahue4038]

Robbie you are too cute! Kid in candy store for sure! Makes me smile to see you enjoying yourself so much.

[@marilyncanaday4862]

Wonderful video! It certainly makes me appreciate the work and craftsmen who bring us beautiful flowers, plants, shrubs, and trees. Thank you for sharing.

[@linetteterry1845]

Oh Robbie, now you are in my neck of the woods. I was born and raised about 20 miles North of your location. It is absolutely beautiful, especially this time of year with the green hills and snow on the Sierras! Great job, you are doing an awesome job! Watch every morning.

[@annwoleben5439]

Great filming, Robbie! This is a fantastic, eye-opening tour. When I see what goes behind the production of the plants, it makes more sense as to the cost of the plant to the consumer. The next time I purchase a Monrovia plant I will remember this tour. Looking forward to Part 2.

[@Jessicagrowwithme]

Wow the robots!!!!

[@thewaywardirishícan]

How fun! Great to see some of the hardworking people from this company; that’s basically all I see up here is Monrovia! Can’t wait to see tomorrow too 🤗

[@gardensglory1229]

Robbie I’m so happy for you! You must feel like you have made it to the big time! Maybe a working relationship coming? Deanna

[@MagdalenaArroyo-cd4ff]

I have never seen or heard you so excited in my life ,nice to see you’re enjoying your trip, everything there is beautiful and amazing…

[@darlenencambria]

WOW, a fantastic video, I can remember growing up in Southern California and Monrovia nursery was a huge place along the Santa Ana river. Thanks Robbie. A lot of interesting information 🌻🧡

[@madonnaschmid7707]

What an amazing place! Hard workers to give us beautiful plants!

[@donnasantamaria8317]

Robbie! This was epic! First, I never knew Monrovia was a west coast grower. They must be a wonderful company to work for, to have such longterm "Craftsmen". Thanks for sharing the info on the Kaptain Fugi Silky wisteria. Plants with white flowers always seem to outperform the ones with colored blooms. Now I want this white wisteria. Can't wait for your next video in the topiary section!

[@susangrother8931]

That view with the mountains in the background, Wow! Thank you for sharing this wonderful place😀

[@sandyg8794]

Hi Robbie! What a fun day for you. Thank you so much for taking us along and sharing!

[@daniellegrows2498]

Ohhh nice!!!! I have a garden friend that’s in her 70’s. 2 years ago she gave me about an 8 year old white wisteria she trained into tree from. ITS IN A POT EVERYONE CHILL 😂😂😂 then last year she gave me a 35 year old stag horn fern 😮 They are among some of my favorites right now!!!!

[@judyingram-kh1vm]

Oh Robbie I'm so excited for you. I know how you feel. So many beautiful plants. Flowers, shrubs, and tree's. Thank you for sharing this with us. Love this so much❤❤❤❤❤

[@grinchis40]

So fascinating to see the big production facilities.

[@peggy-ann1961]

That was fascinating Robbie, thank you. It’s great to see behind the scenes of where our babies start out. ❄️🇨🇦❄️

[@rhondafisher72]

Wow that was fantastic to see.

[@Carmen-ok]

Hello Robbie. What a great and well deserved experience for you. Thank you very much for taking us along on this incredible tour. I like Monrovia plz take very much, living in a hot climate like Oklahoma they perform well and now I know why. They are produced in California which has very hot climate as well. The amount of care that goes into their plants is impressive. I am so happy that you were invited to this behind the scenes tour 😊

[@jagodaperich-anderson5058]

Thanks for taking us along on this tour. Interesting to get a glimpse of what it takes to grow plants commercially. Monrovia plants are the ones most available up here in Pacific NW where I garden so I especially enjoyed this.

[@carlarivas1238]

Robbie - your intense excitement was soooo precious to watch. I felt like a parent so happy to see their kid achieve their dream. Congrats on the invitation- you are worthy.

[@proudmomma7095]

So fun!!! And very informative. Never realized the craftsmanship that goes into the topiaries !

[@heatherk2693]

Nice facility! Those robots were very cool. Thanks for the tour.

[@odemonet]

This was so cool! I always wondered how they grafttrees and why! Fascinating, thank you for bringing us with you.

[@MysticFIREFLY]

ah, I LOVE going with you on your trips. You take me to that Neverland that would never be possible for me to see. Love that you are focused on Monrovia......

[@lrogers707]

Wonderful - including the 'grafting' demos, etc...thank you

[@leahjunkins988]

What an awesome video! Thank you so much for sharing your tour of the Monrovia growing facility. Monrovia is more prevalent in my area than PW, so this was great to see the care they use in growing their plants.

[@gogowoods2616]

Robbie, this vlog was awesome. Monrovia plant production is fascinating. Love the robots. That whole graphing technique was so awesome( who knew). I'm usually a Proven Winter fan, but I might just have to pick up a couple of Monrovia plants this year. Great job Robbie thank you for taking us along.

[@Idkimjustwatchingyt]

I love Monrovia, their quality is top notch! I don’t get the PW hype, the quality isn’t consistent throughout their plants. Thanks for sharing!

[@RC-mc6rc]

This was so informative! I really enjoyed how much we were able to hear from the growers and “craftsman” I understand now why grafted and topiary plants are so expensive. I really enjoyed this! I hope they let you take some plants home!

[@clemqueens1943]

Robbie- The mom in me was brought to happy tears for you. Your love of plants and gardening was bursting being at Monrovia. I’m so happy for you!❤

[@medinasod2013]

Well, these two videos were wonderful. Thank you so much for sharing and Robbie you to serve all of it. You're a great guy

[@marthasvineyardgingerbreadhome]

Fantastic video Robbie. So happy and proud of you. What an incredible facility and what they do to make these beautiful plants.

[@lauripedersen3150]

I remember watching The Victory Garden on PBS with my dad in the 80's and Monrovia was always a sponsor. Great brand with great plants. Cool tour!

[@michellewilman9822]

OMG how lucky are you!! What an amazing experience. Thanks so much for taking us along. The whole section on grafting was so informative!!

[@sydneykasmar]

Watching them move the plants for cuttings was fascinating. Thanks.

[@shelhuff1043]

Thanks for bringing us!! I need a camellia that blooms all year..divine!

[@stacyadams8265]

Loved the little robots. Wall-e really exists😂

[@dawnreynolds519]

Robbie that was so interesting!! I know your in heaven right now being surrounded by all those fabulous plants. Just going into a green house is my happy place. I can’t imagine being in a nursery of that size! I’m so looking forward to tomorrow’s video. Have fun and enjoy the experience.

[@AJsGreenThumbLLC]

Wow! After seeing this video I had to subscribe! I love Monrovia plants because of their selection and high quality. Thanks so much for sharing this video.

[@lananicolas160]

This must be like a day at Disneyland

[@Thegardenwhatcanbedone]

The little robots remind me of the movie Silent Running. Great movie but it will make you cry.

[@maryferguson6586]

So interesting. I especially enjoyed seeing the grafting process.

[@krystalnebel7304]

Wow that's very interesting with the whole Graphing. I didn't know that's what they did. Thank you for bring me on ur trip.

[@OsitoMakesItBonito]

Such a great video! It’s so fascinating to get an inside glimpse on their grafting. I’ve been watching your videos for a while and this is one of my favorites. 🥰

[@gritandGracegardening]

So cool Robbie!! I love seeing places like this that I will otherwise never get to see. Thank you so much!!

[@jorgee7470]

How exciting to go on the tour with you. I am looking forward to the continuation tomorrow. Everything is so interesting from the grafting, to the technology's used ,to the peek at the plants as well as seeing the magnitude of their opperation. So,so interesting! Thank you for bringng us along. All the best to you and Brent, Robbie

[@wendyb171]

I love when you do different garden places! I live 20 minutes from cottage gardens in Petaluma and love to see all the garden centers. I’m hoping to get down to planters paradise in Chula Vista and the places you’ve shown in Sacramento someday. I really look forward to your videos!!! I’ve been learning about so many plants! I have a very small backyard now and the previous owners had it covered in rock. Ugh!! My dogs hate it and so do I. I’m trying to figure out a design and make it comfortable. The more you show the more ideas I get and I can’t hone in on anything because of you! 😂. I keep changing my mind! 😂😂. Thank you so much for what you’re doing on KZbin. You’re educating and entertaining.

[@kimpaynter]

So interesting I don’t think people even understand how much work goes just to have a plant. Great info.❤

[@SuzanneTLC]

Hi Robbie, that was awesome. I work in a Garden Center and take care of the Monrovia shrubs. Can’t believe how much goes into the process. Loved the video,,, Thank you!!!

[@audreyfisher7163]

That was excellent. It is great to see where the plants I purchase come from. Thank you so very much. You are the Best. zone 9 Bay Area.

[@christophertaylor9826]

Great video and learned a lot about grafting juniper tree standards. Can't wait to see what's next. 😊

[@StaceyFernandes-ek9ks]

wow is all i can say!! now i know why plants are SOOOO expensive there is so really hard dedication that goes in to all the growing parts!!!!

[@cyndini55]

What a special treat. Thanks for taking us with you.

[@bettyboop1524]

Terrific video, amazing what goes into our nursery pots before we get them.

[@christinetrewin9717]

Thank you so much for taking us with you. That was all fascinating, I maybe should have pursued a horticultural type of employment instead of what I did. I only became an obsessed gardener in my later years though 👩‍🌾🇫🇷

[@2wheelsforever174]

The grafting explanation was sooo interesting!!

[@joanneschultz9038]

I love your excitement and your love of gardening shines through. Thank you for taking us along. My Home Depot carries Monrovia plants and it was fun seeing their facility.

[@janettemassino9996]

Robbie, like a kid at Disney!!! I am so happy that you were selected and asked to attend!! So fabulous!!!

[@stephaniesharkey3538]

Amazing !🪴

[@juliamorrisey5541]

Very educational video. I will be much more accepting of plant costs. I have been trying to grow from bulbs, tubers, seed and so on, but sometimes a potted plant is the only option. Your channel has been very motivating. I live in the PNW and we just had a week of gardening weather and after watching your garden tour I couldn't wait to get out and garden.

[@daiseegray9110]

Wow! So interesting, when you see how much work, care and dedication it takes to grow a plant I won’t complain about the price! Can you share some of the other influencers channels? 🌼🐝

[@carolcostello6967]

I am so excited for you that got invited to the Monrovia growing facility. I loved how you shared what the facility looked like, the education sections you showed us, and your thoughts.

[@maryrasnick7642]

Thank you so much for filming this tour!! How interesting! Who knew!!! Loved it !❤! Robbie you have so much fun in whatever you do. Love your videos!

[@connieepson6617]

So interesting! Thanks for taking us along!

[@debs-more-plants]

Wow! Great video! How fun! Awesome!!!

[@nancyverburg315]

So cool to see the behind the scenes look at how they grow so many plants. Can't wait for the next part!

[@janiekanzler7776]

Great tour! Thank you for sharing!

[@tapinviewpastoral]

How utterly fascinating ❤

[@DouglasDrake-o8e]

This was amazing. You did a good job of filming the grafting up close. Your filming made me feel like I was there!

[@kimberlyjohnson5681]

Robbie Thank you for this video what an amazing nursery was so interesting listening to the experts and learning about grafting and how the do not waste any of the trimmings they do would love for you to do a follow up video on the proper time and way to prune the hydrangea , I was a little confused on when to prune since here in Northern California they are still in full bloom for me thru September

[@helenparsons6533]

Robbie, im so happy you got to go tour Monrovia! You look so happy! Very good video! I hope you have a wonderful time!

[@kathyraidt16]

Thanks for explaining the different topics being covered.

[@sabinegossart409]

You landed in heaven! Loved your video and so glad you went close up with a little bit more on the grafting. Thank you.

[@Thegardenwhatcanbedone]

You can move it now. The tulips will still be there in three weeks. If you move the grass you can move the rose. I would pot it up. So you can take it with you when you move.

[@jeaniemcdaris8276]

❤ best day ever

[@paulapeeler3157]

Robbie...so excited for you...

[@AlBGood]

Bravo 👏 Thank you

LOVE it! So happy for you, congratulations 🎉🎈

[@LifeHomeandGardenwithAnaRica]

Thank you so much for this exciting tour. Enjoy

[@nicolemcdougald4846]

So I am only a hour from Fresno and you said this Monrovia place was a hour from the nursery you visited. I am sooo curious where this place is. I keep hoping you say it's location but I must have missed it. So where is this Monrovia growing place at? Also So happy for you. What a treat indeed.

[@Rgina1979]

I'm in Hanford, I think this Monrovia plant is located in Woodlake I think!

[@deannachurch1103]

❤ Monrovia plants. Thank you Robbie!

[@loriwhite7835]

Good morning, Robbie. Omg...you are so lucky to get to see this. You must be on information overload. Thank you for sharing this with us. I'm in maryland zone 7b so this is something I will never get to enjoy other than through you. Thank you for sharing your trip. Have a wonderful time. I'm looking forward to seeing you apply all your new gained knowledge. Thanks again. Travel safely ❤

[@bettypisiakowski2148]

I love Monrovia plants.. so excited for you

[@kathytrohoske421]

Thanks Robbie. That's so interesting 😊

[@krisleonard1428]

This was fun! Thanks for taking us along!

[@lindylou3519]

Thanks Robbie! Wow! So impressive!❤

[@lalaydade3364]

So fun! I would love to see too! I would ask them why Monrovia is the most expensive in the garden centers compared to other growers?
