Tour DOC BLOCK'S CONSERVATORY & GREENHOUSE — Ep. 302

Last week we toured the backyard paradise of Doctor Jeff Block—replete with towering palms, fruiting trees, flowers, and awesome aroids. This time, we take a tour through his conservatory and greenhouse where we can see some of his ongoing Anthurium hybridization, wet wall, and more.

Dr. Block's choice of words and articulation are such a treat as the garden itself.

[lukaostojic]

We need more of these kind of tours; tropical, lush greenhouses and tropical landscaping!

[kathymacomber]

“ from collector to a custodian “! Awesome stuff

[Milquetoast]

It’s hard to imagine this tour could beat the first one - but it did. Tell me plants are not just amazing!

[m.wright]

I could watch Dr Bloc for hours and hours! What an incredible person! Thanks for sharing this treasure 💚💚💚💚

[annadasilva]

What a blessing it must be to live in such a beautiful environment.

[janecurtis]

Totally agree with Doc Block’s philosophy about growing and collecting tropical plants. We should be stewards of the world’s declining and endangered plant species but also of the native environments in which we live.

thanks again to dr. block for his hospitality. really enjoyed seeing the medinilla hybrid. when i left florida about 15 years ago there were really only 2 species readily available. enjoyed RO 101. we have an under the counter unit just for cooking and drinking but still would like to do a full house system. luckily here in the southern appalachians we are very wet so we collect rain water for the indoor plants. we use to use the sour milk trick for starting plants up stucco walls and tree trunks, now days i've been using foliar jadam sprays occasionally and it gives amazing results. thanks summer for another great tour.

Doc Block lives in a dream come true. ❄️💚🙃

[johnhovancsek]

This is my kind of garden. I left Florida to come to Hawaii to grow the things he has. The water part was extremely informative.

[wandashaw]

Such an amazing collection and his mindset on the future of plant life is absolutely wonderful. Thank you for sharing and introducing us to Dr. Block.

Ahhh a smartful interview and plant tour, refreshing, thank you both🐸

[pellaz]

Doctor Jeff Block's explanations are so concise and informative, and I see that he and Summer have similar conversation wavelengths in exchanging ideas and opinions. This and the backyard tour are definitely my new favorites!

[alexbalistreya]

I enjoyed Dr. Block's insight and knowledge! Such a great tour of his amazing collections. He is a talented speaker and I enjoyed the important message of custodianship. Top favorite video of mine as well.
