UK TROPICAL GARDEN tour with Curator | February in Abbotsbury Subtropical Gardens 

Curator with knowledge and personality

Yes please more of this. Please keep up with the Latin names and families.

We’ve visited Abbotsbury but this was great to see plants we had missed - easily done with so many magnificent plants to see.

Very helpful video. It's great to learn lots about each plant. Love seeing the names on screen, too. Thank you!

Great video Craig and a garden is definitely love to visit one day! I’m sure I remember seeing Eriobotrya deflexa and it’s a stunning plant - maybe not one for my garden but certainly a beauty to admire. That Butiagrus has certainly grown since I last saw pics of it and I’m sure it’ll continue to devolve into a tall and stately tropical palm. Keep up the series, you’re lucky to live so close and David knows his stuff 👍

Hi funnily enough I think I was there at the same time as you! (last Saturday) I certainly saw most of the same plants as you showed. There's always something interesting to see whatever the time of year.

Great video - thanks for sharing.

This guy really knows his plants. Very beautiful location thanks for bringing to us

Great watching thank you Craig and your friend David cheers.

Really enjoyed the video. Remember how much the Eriobotrya Deflexa stood out when I visited last summer. Much more interesting plant than I had realised before. Nearly bought one when I got home but didn’t think it would be hardy enough for my location in Peterborough. Sod it im going to buy one anyway.

Love the mule at the end. I have 2 baby ones so can’t wait to see how they grow

Thank you for this great video Craig!

Wonderful watching

Fantastic, thanks gents. More please.

I always love tours of magical places like these, especially with a specialist to provide specific info. So thanks a lot! Seeing what is possible in a climate like ours (us Dutchies usually can get away with the same plants) :)

Brilliant video, you must do more, it's my favourite place

Ive got Buddleja salviiflora in north west england and has sailed through the winter, retaining most of its leaves so I can confirm its hardiness :)

Mule steals the show for me hands down. I have a butyagrus I'm planting out this May. Hope it looks a fraction as good as this beauty in 15 years time 👍

Very interesting, great video, thanks Craig 😊

Brilliant video bro! great to learn some new plants for the list!

I was just looking at buying a Bronze Loquat a couple of days ago. Great timing to see one in this video.

Great vid!

13:23 by his right hand, is that a Mahonia?

Is the Chinese ginger good for dry shade?

Do they have any araucaria?

the plants were nice but they deserve a better introduction.
