I went this summer and nearly fell over because I have never in my lifetime seen so many spectacular aroids in one place. My mind was absolutely blown. I daydream about it frequently now.
I can watch this video a million times. Talk about symbiotic relationships, legit the epitome of a little piece of plant heaven. Gardens of the Bay and its synergy is unprecedented and you covered it so well! Creepers become climbers, plants do have a mind of their own, excuse me while I pick up my jaw 😲🤣 thank you for sharing 👌💦🌱💫
Thank you greatly Sean, means a lot! I finally found a passion that allows me to be myself, your channel was one of the first to inspire me, Wild Fern, Patadendron, Leafing Around and others as well. Keep up the great work, keep connecting, their are many present and future plant parents that need your expertise, keep sharing the joy, let's goooo 💦🌱💫
As much as I wanted to enjoy this garden, the constant whining about how people are getting in the way puts a bad taste in my mouth. Am I sensing a brush of arrogance here? I hope not.
And find out the time when they spray the mist in the cloud forest. Before the mist subsides, go inside the tower. The experience is very different. It's a must to have the mist presented.
18:40 Begonia Carolineifolia, I've also seen it being called "The Palm Begonia". Loves it on the dry side, is what the seller told me when I bought mine. Lovely plant, unique look especially when they get bigger. Does well in 40-60% humidity according to sources I deem very reliable, so it should be fine in most living rooms with the right light
15:20 on the right side of Peperomia Elongata is Gynura Aurantiaca Purple Passion🙂 I have one as well, they are cheap to come by in Europe. Got it a couple of months now, easy plant so far (in my living room at 55-65% humidity on average and 16C-19C temperatures). In case anyone was wondering
Thank you Sean for picking the battle so I can see the Wonder from a 'safe' distance. Will definitely consider going there next time I am in Singapore.
Sean, thank you SO much for taking us along even tho it was overwhelming and hectic and time with your family. And thank you for being real about it. This actually ended up being one of my favorite planty places you’ve been, and has inspired me to get more begonia! Thanks for the content and time! And thanks to your momma and cousin :) Also those anthuriums are the end: WOW!
I’ve always wanted to visit for so many years…won’t happen, but I’m so happy you’ve taken us to this wonderland. Words can’t explain how magical this is. Thanks so much Sean; you’d make a great reporter!
I love your channel Sean! Thank you so much for sharing this incredible beautiful garden ! A masterpiece of human achievement. I could also watch this over and over again. Lol! 😄
I love your spirit!! I truly enjoyed your interaction today as always, thank you 🙏 so much! It always leaves me feeling like a kid in a candy store as I follow through your eyes and soak up all of your energy and inspiration!! You’re the best and I definitely want this spot on my bucket list for sure!!
It's because Monstera grows just fine outside in our crazy weather and doesn't require the greenhouse or any sort of specialized care. If they planted Monstera in here under prime conditions, they'll literally grow to monster size and take over everything. We generally use Monstera plants as landscaping foliage for public areas in Singapore. Whether it's in full sun or inside a mall, Monstera has proven to be remarkably adaptable here. I walk past a whole patch of them at my train station everyday.. and they have trunks thicker than my arm and I have never seen the staff do more than water them sometimes.
respect bro. it is a public space. you'll get used to them eventually. chill out and just enjoy the plants. You could have just done a voiceover so you wont panic while touring. :)
Haha I noticed it too during editing… was contemplating to just voice over it but theres some fun and realness there… Im sure many feel the same in the situation and its a basic human reaction 😅😅
love this video! and how wonderful the place is! amazing! I can experience it by the sound of your words and the excitement on your tone. and the people are as interesting as the plants them selfs, you have no idea how much you are missing! Great job!
I would absolutely love to visit this place at least once in my life. Thanks for this amazing video! You got a new sub. You mentioned about there being no Monstera's, but I personaly wondered about Alocasia presence.. I didn't see any of them as well
Oh true i didnt see them too. Maybe alocasia is to keep spidermites away… its also possible that monsteras are not known to be high altitude plants? While anthuriums and some philodendrons are
Ahh yeah spidermites could be the reason! Alocasia's are also no climbing plants ofc. I did miss them a little on maybe some flat surfaces. But monstera's are excellent climbing aroids I think, but I don't know about high altitude.
I've always wondered how they import huge and rear plants across the world over. Would you mind doing a video on the logistics of finding a special plant, and relocating it to a huge greenhouse?
Ooh this really depends on many factors… most important being the import regulation of the specific country. Singapore opens its doors to imports with almost no restrictions, its the easiest country to import. Which is why it enjoys such a huge diversity if plants worldwide. Also when you are a government backed project or a conservatory, there are different process (much easier) to bring in endangered, and also huge plants. It would most certainly have to be air-flown.
I certainly understand your frustration at trying to create content for your vlog......and having to desl with the noise from the Avatar soundtrack, inc animal calls, peoples loud chatter and supposidly getting in their way......After all you were taking pictures and had the same rights to get the shots you wanted. Might need to take a couple bouncers ( security ) next time 😄 Really felt for you.....but you did well, Wish you could have spent a bit more time there. Maybe another opp will come when the Avatar exibit finishes and all it peaceful as there were so many plants that caught my eye in just in the frame...would LOVE more detail. The Begonias blew my mind. Absolutely Stunning. Thanks Sean.....you never disapoint 🙏🙏🙏
I changed to 1080 p resolution to extract all the Benifits 😂.I think Irin has covered this garden in her channel but I’ll never get bored of this Pandora world.I was really Pandorised😮😮😮….
I get annoyed with tourists too lol But Sean, it's like you read my mind. When I saw the verrucosum, I thought, please inform me of your pest management practices in such a big building
@@onlyplants they had a little sign near the entrance saying they use beneficial mites. But I don’t know if that’s all they use. Love your video, I visited in April and your video is so informative.
Life hack for anyone who like this place and lives in SG / is staying here for a few weeks: Paying for the ticket 3 times already costs more than a yearly pass, so if you intend to go thrice you should just get that instead
LOL I get triggered by loud people too like I want to flip a table over. whenever I go to the conservatory in SF i go at opening hour so I can actually study the plants.
@@onlyplants oh it's absolutely hilarious, people are there for different reasons, but my logic is that if you don't want other people in your photo, don't go where there are ton of other people haha
I was there in September 2023. Breathtaking
I went this summer and nearly fell over because I have never in my lifetime seen so many spectacular aroids in one place. My mind was absolutely blown. I daydream about it frequently now.
Haha yes its way more marvelous when you go there in person
Thanks Sean. The Cloud Forest is absolutely magnificent.
🥰🥰
Beautiful sharing my friend nice place ❤❤❤from Bangladesh 🇧🇩❤️
Thank you ❤️❤️
Beautiful shot from behind the water falls. 🌷💚🙃

The ideal time to visit the Flower Dome and the Cloud Forest is 9 am on weekdays before the tourist buses arrive 😂
Haha thank you Ill keep that in mind. Good tip!

My god .... not the first time seeing these "Gardens", never visited in person. But it is a goal in life!
🥰🥰 try to make it if you can. Its more breathtaking in person
Such a very beautiful and inspiring place. Could it be that monstera would not be happy in that cool environment?
Its possible. Monsteras might be more low land

Ooooh thank you for this plant ID! Ive added to my wish list
Thank you Sean for picking the battle so I can see the Wonder from a 'safe' distance. Will definitely consider going there next time I am in Singapore.
Haha yes please do visit. Its more impressive in person. The smell of nature here was amazing.

Yes I see Monsteras everywhere on the roadsides! Here in Indonesia they are considered expensive and they are prone to get stolen.
Thanks for sharing~

Fairytale come to live😍

So beautiful

Hahaha cool 24 degrees.. That's a nice summer day temp where I live!
Whoaaaaa the plants really love that. Its 34 degrees where I am now it can actually rot few plants.

Thank you. I’m low-key hoping that they will have me during maintenance day. Ill have to reach out much farther in advance to coordinate with them.

Thunbergia mysorensis toom my breath away. Ufff

Begonia haven, the yellow ones really caught my eyes. Btw how much is tne entrance fee ?
For adults it is $35 SGD
When is it closed? What's the entry fee?
I actually dont have the answer for this 🫣 but I have a feeling it would be on their site. Be sure to visit it before you plan a trip ❤️
07:58 _Begonia luxurians_ 😊
Thank you 🥰 looking it up now
I get annoyed with tourists too lol
But Sean, it's like you read my mind. When I saw the verrucosum, I thought, please inform me of your pest management practices in such a big building
Haha I want to contact them to see if they will give me a private tour on maintenance day. Or maybe let me intern for a day lol
@@onlyplants they had a little sign near the entrance saying they use beneficial mites. But I don’t know if that’s all they use. Love your video, I visited in April and your video is so informative.

Wowww that is great tips indeed. I wonder if thats also applicable to all the enclosures/attractions
Hi😘😘😘❤🙏🏻
Hi back 😀❤️
Sorry but I couldn't stand the music on this one. : ( It sounds like a movie preview.
Thanks for letting me know, I appreciate honesty 🌹
LOL I get triggered by loud people too like I want to flip a table over. whenever I go to the conservatory in SF i go at opening hour so I can actually study the plants.
Its a lesson well learnt haha. Ill definitely hit up places first thing when they open
People can be so rude sometimes, they have to have their precious photo no matter what, no regards to everyone else there 😅
Haha maybe they think Im rude too, for trying to take plant videos. The whole thing is funny actually I was laughing during editing. 🤣
@@onlyplants oh it's absolutely hilarious, people are there for different reasons, but my logic is that if you don't want other people in your photo, don't go where there are ton of other people haha
