  • We made a quick 24-hour stop in Detroit, MI and just our luck would have it we arrived on a day when the Belle Isle Conservatory (Anna Scripps Whitcomb Conservatory)-which may be the oldest conservatory in the U.S. (to be debated)-was closed to the public-but open to 'Plant One On Me'. Enjoy this private, in-depth tour of their beautiful conservatory.

    Went here last week and it was amazing! It seems like they took some plants out and added plants in. It looked like there was a hoya imbricata (which after searching seems more like a dischidia imbricata) and some of the beds were just filled with aglaonema modestums. I can't wait to go back there again to see what new plants will be in! Unfortunately the fern room was closed off.
