ROYAL BOTANIC GARDEN SYDNEY - a behind the scenes tour - Aroids & Orchids

[@rams2484]

Hey, I"m also from Romania :) viele grüße Jan! Thanks for the video. Always love to watch them!🌿

[@sydneyplantguy]

Thanks for watching :)

[@bob9108]

A botanical garden with a shopping area?! Heavens, I would go bankrupt 😅

[@plantwithroos]

Don’t most botanical gardens have that? At least that I’ve seen.. I’m in Europe

[@bob9108]

@@plantwithroos Idk. I have only visited one so far in Germany. But it belongs to a university so maybe that is why they aren`t selling something.

[@manabushltd3250]

Yep id go bankrupt as well!

[@SparkleInMoonlight]

​ Here in the Czech Rep. the botanic gardens usually have either a permanent shopping part (usually the more comercial ones), or special events (mostly the university ones), where they sell their excess plants & propagations, and sometimes they include private sellers in the events too, which makes it the best shopping option dreamable 😍 (it´s possible to buy very unsual plants, even some really obsure ones)

[@bob9108]

@@SparkleInMoonlight wow that sounds really cool!

[@ceciliadeleon5027]

Been there 2 weeks ago from Los Angeles California. The place is huge and no enough time. I love love so much .

[@sydneyplantguy]

Yes heaps to explore :)

[@carolstuff]

This was an awesome video. Love hearing the history of those plants we sometimes take for granted. Thanks for taking us along Jan.

[@sydneyplantguy]

Glad you enjoyed it :)

[@SparkleInMoonlight]

I´m looking forward to the continuation of this tour very much 🙂

[@politiclpanties]

The second employee Val was so charismatic so many fun facts about the orchids its so interesting!

[@sydneyplantguy]

He’s a champ!! :)

[@giardinodialberi8751]

Thanks for the Royal tour. It is fitting to see YOU admiring these venerable specimens since your own collection is one of the few KZbinr collections that approach that grand scale. Nice work.

[@jillianleblanc9370]

Thank you for sharing all those amazing plants very amazing video

[@sydneyplantguy]

Thank you :)

[@KathyGallagher01]

Thank you so much for taking us along Jan, was interesting to see so many older plants and good to see that we are not the only ones that are in the 1-2-3 club with Anthuriums 😂. 💚

[@sydneyplantguy]

Thanks for watching :)

[@rmdp2023]

I only saw these plants from outside the greenhouse. Thanks for showing us what is inside!

[@out.of_the_fryingpan]

Another cool vlog. 6:13 you've got plenty of space in the yard now for a greenhouse 😉

[@sydneyplantguy]

Thanks :)

[@Trilling0Fong]

Such a cool episode!! Unfortunately where I live our botanic gardens closed their only tropical (aroids) greenhouse because of theft 😢 devastating that a small percentage of people ruined it for the rest of us!! They have since closed entirely and removed all their specimens (I assume to a private location, perhaps a university or similar) so the resource has gone for good. I loved being able to attend this ‘virtual tour’ and look forwards to any future episodes at the Gardens! 😇

[@sydneyplantguy]

Thank you! Yes unfortunately many gardens in Australia have had plants being stolen too :(

[@donnaerickson613]

That is truly sad, people sometimes are something else.

[@Yoliplanting]

What a great video Jan thank you for showing us this treasure from your side of the world. Fascinating and informative. What beautiful treasures you have there!

[@sydneyplantguy]

Thank you:)

[@mr.detley8723]

Hallo Jan.schönes Video. Schade das AJ nicht dabei ist, habe ich gedacht. Das wäre doch bestimmt auch was für sie. Jep und dann steht sie hinter der Kamera!🤣 Ein grosses Danke auch an die Zwei vom Botanischen Garten! 🌱

[@ilyachap]

Wow, even in perfect conditions some philos and anthuriums still yellow and dry off their leaf tips. That kinda boosts confidence about my plants not being perfect in average/below average humidity.

[@sydneyplantguy]

Perfectly imperfect :)

[@renatecormick7399]

Fabulous tour. Thanks so much for taking us along, can’t wait for the next one.

[@sydneyplantguy]

Thanks for watching :)

[@reduced1674]

You did a good job of getting someone who was too shy to talk, to talk 😅

Wow! Thanks for taking us along! Thanks AJ for filming! ❤❤

[@sydneyplantguy]

Thanks for watching :)

[@garethpeterson9771]

Thanks, Jan. I have booked for the glasshouse tour after being inspired by your video. I am excited that you are considering growing ferns.

[@sydneyplantguy]

Hope you enjoy the tour :)

Amazing, thank you! And thank you for filming AJ

Awesome video! I enjoyed seeing you out in the wild haha

[@sunnymelbourneplants]

Wow, what a privilege to visit this beautiful botanic garden with you Jan 😍 This was epic, you defo need to do more of them, fascinating! All the different species. But I have to say, the orchids stole the show for me. This draculas were so pretty and they were all so different. You should go back when in flower 😍 thanks for sharing! Big thanks from Melbourne 😁

[@sydneyplantguy]

Glad you enjoyed it :)

[@larissamc5153]

I miss the RBG's glass pyramid that was full of tropical/ indoor plants, used to go in there all the time when I was studying horticulture at uni. The Calyx just isn't the same.

[@sydneyplantguy]

I never got to see the pyramid unfortunately :(

[@kadysinger3877]

[@TayaMcGee]

Boobies 😂😂😂

[@sydneyplantguy]

Thank you :)

[@reduced1674]

I love that anthurium sp too! I've found something that can sort of grow similar - anthurium bogotense. Giving that one a go 😁🙏

[@TenSam3133]

I love this giant Amorphophallus on the back (at 19-20:00) . Greetings from Poland 🪴

[@just_randomly]

Love it, thx for sharing :) I especially adore those platyceriums in the back at 9:13 and ofc. the melano :o I would love to know what different kind of poles they use and when to use what. I saw moss poles, xaxim and bark as climbing supports in the video. I am currently experimenting with moss alternatives an different ratios since moss-only gives me some mold issues in the dark winter in Germany. Thx for sharing I really appreciate your content, keep it up :)

[@sydneyplantguy]

They mainly seem to be using moss but some of the anthuriums have just been mounted to bark :)

[@sydneyplantguy]

He said at the end of the video that he is from romania :)

[@mikedecem]

@@sydneyplantguy Thanks, i stopped video before that probably. However, blows my mind some plants are same age or older than me, yet still compact and in the pot !

[@pedrocarvalho6391]

Just a question on a plant ID - so that at the beginning was really a Mamei? Did you get like a full name or something? Bc I have the exact same plant, bought it as plowmanii and if you Google search plowmanii round form then that comes up and I'm very confused now 😂😂

[@sydneyplantguy]

Philodendron mamei was the full name on the tag. It looked like a plowmanii to me but I’d assume the Botanic Garden got it right and we might have all just been identifying it incorrectly ?! Either way, they are just names :)

[@virginiamartinez391]

💚🌿💚🐾😻🐾

[@TheJake76]

20:28 looks like anthirium corong or anthirium brownii

[@valiaudet3415]

Golly. I've only yesterday potted a crawling. Now it's going into a hanging basket. How big does a basket need to be?😅😅🎉🎉😂❤ march 2024

[@weverson02]

20:30 Looks like Anthurium balaoanum

[@jordanleecurtis]

at 15:09 you said Pastazanum but its actually Dean McDowell!! Its a Gloriosum x Pastazanum. Pastas don't have white veins.

[@sydneyplantguy]

They have it labelled as Dean McDowell… to my knowledge u can only certainly identify them by the color of their infloresence.

[@cheappinoy1053]

Do you find you are watering your plants more after placing them outside?

[@sydneyplantguy]

Yes and no, most days the watering gets done by mother nature :)

Is the unknown plant @ 20:30 Anthurium Baloanum?
