    I so enjoyed this episode. I love how Summer soaks in everything and how much joy and passion each expressed in their tour and conversation. You can tell how much mutual admiration they held for each other.

    I was just there last week! Gorgeous place, truly one of the most diverse gardens in the US. Your showcasing is excellent. Great camera work. I can only imagine how much footage you cut to get this down to an hour video!

    No one knew what a muffler was 😂 But he had a creative and beautiful solution. And living in zone 6b I love seeing all the plants they can grow outdoors in the South

  • @SequoiaElisabeth
    Such a knowledgeable man, Tony. I'm blown away with the variety of this garden. Probably one of the best botanical collections I have seen outside of say, Huntington or Longwood.
