welcome to the 4th and final episode of Nong Nooch Tropical Garden. In the last episode, we covered garden mission, behind the scenes operations, fascinating plants, palms and cycads. but… I… might have saved the best for last. In today’s fast paced adventure, we dive into a few generas of plants commonly found in gardens around the world. This includes plummerias, adeniums, cactii and of course one of the largest hoya collection in the world. Let’s begin!

Coco de Mer:
Deep in the Seychelles, grows a palm unlike an y other—Lodoicea maldivica, better known as the Coco de Mer.
It produces the largest and heaviest seed in the plant kingdom—shaped strikingly like a human pelvis. Some say it’s nature’s most suggestive masterpiece.
These ancient palms take decades to mature, and their seeds can weigh over 25 kilograms.
For centuries, the nuts washed up on distant shores, fueling myths of underwater trees and forbidden fruit.
But today, the real story is one of conservation. Coco de Mer is endangered, threatened by habitat loss and illegal seed collection.
Encephalartos hirsutus:
Found only on two islands, it’s now protected by strict laws, with each nut tagged and tracked by the government.
Native to the steep cliffs of Limpopo, South Africa, fewer than a hundred mature individuals remain in the wild. Its name, hirsutus, refers to the golden-brown hairs that cover its young leaves and cones—giving it a fuzzy, almost prehistoric look.
Like all cycads, it’s ancient—dating back to the time of the dinosaurs of over 280 million years. But today, this living fossil is critically endangered.
Poached for collectors, and confined to a single, isolated site, Encephalartos hirsutus is now protected under the highest level of international law.
Conservationists are racing to save it, growing it in botanical gardens and guarded private collections.
It’s a reminder that even the toughest survivors of time can disappear—unless we act.

In today’s episode, we learn about the wonderful history and garden mission from the owner himself. I was deeply touched by the plight of the garden. Mr Kampon and his mother left an unforgettable mark on this world, and I hope this episode celebrates their achievement. Whether you are a plant collector or gardener, I hope this episode touches and inspires you.
Let’s begin with a little bit of history…
From its inception in the year 1980, the garden set out on a mission to be “a garden for all people of this world”. The story began in the 50s when Mr. Pisit and Mrs. Nongnooch bought 600 acres of land originally designated for fruit plantations.
Upon travelling the world and deeply inspired by gardens, Mrs Nongnooch set out to turn the fruit orchard into a world-class tropical garden filled with ornamental plants and flowers.
The garden was later turned into a tourist attraction fully equipped with accommodation, a swimming pool, restaurants, and banquet and seminar halls for the tourist’s convenience. Apart from numerous themed gardens too long to list here, the garden is known for its lifesize replica dinosaurs, all crafted by hand. It also has Thai cultural shows, elephant rides, and a car museum.
Today, more than 5,000 people visit each day and the garden has also been recognised as one of the top ten most beautiful gardens in the world.
While I was impressed by every turn we took during the garden tour, what really took me by surprise, was the owner, Mr Kampon. I did not film our initial introduction earlier as I was not sure if he would be comfortable. When I arrived that morning, Mr Anders actually drove me around the park to locate him using the traditional method of… asking every other staffs we passed along the way where they last saw him. When we finally sighted him… it was very difficult for me to discern the man who is the owner of this garden he blended right in with the staffs. I immediately grew to respect and adore this man, as I realized that he was hands on with every aspect of the garden’s appearance and maintenance.
Fortunately, I was able to catch him for a 10 minutes interview. Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you Mr Kampon.

Welcome to Jurassic World at the Cloud Forest, Gardens by the Bay in Singapore!
Join us as we step into the fascinating world of ancient plants—some of which still grow in gardens around the world today.
In collaboration with Jurassic World, Paul and the gardens team, developed a stunning landscape concept as the backdrop for life-like dinosaur animatronics. They conducted in-depth research into the plant life of the dinosaur era. From there, they sourced living specimens from across the globe that protray that ancient world, and even created reconstructions of extinct plants based on fossil evidence.
The main groups of ancient plants featured here are ferns, cycads, conifers, and lycophytes—living relics that offer us a rare window into prehistoric ecosystems. These plants not-only connect us to Earth’s deep history, but also make for surprisingly good dinner conversation topics.

This is especially useful in tropical forests with intense light, like in western Thailand where the plant is native.
Like all Bauhinia, the leaves are bilobed, often described as butterfly shaped and unfold like a taco. It produces orchid-like white to pale pink flowers, typically in warm months. While beautiful, the foliage often overshadows the flowers in terms of ornamental value. As a woody vine or scrambling shrub, it can climb trellises, fences, or be pruned to shape.
They grow best in bright indirect light to full sun. It is said too much shade may reduce the vibrancy of the new foliage. They prefer well-draining, fertile soil enriched with compost or organic matter that is let dry out slightly between watering. Regular pruning encourages new foliage growth, which is the plant’s main attraction. It is Usually propagated via seeds or semi-hardwood cuttings, though it can be slow-growing.
The golden-orange hue often stays visible, especially if the leaf is dried quickly and away from direct sun or moisture. However, the color may shift slightly to muted copper, tan, or russet-brown over time.

In this episode, I visit Venado Tropicals in Cotabato, Philippines to see an extensive collection of bromeliads and their original hybrids. Sir Ziegfried Onari spent decades creating thousands of beautiful Bromeliad hybrids at this very this nursery, and left his wife and 6 children the ultimate legacy - a plethora of unregistered hybrids. The collection is now in the care of wife Bing Onari. Bing shares her experience living with a master breeder, working the family business, and slowly turning into a plant lover herself.
We see some of the bromeliads up close and personal, revering their beautiful details through the episode. Bing shares some bromeliad care tips, and some good reasons why we all need to try to grow them.
We end the tour to visit some interesting plants around the nursery, including aroids, selaginellas and medinillas.

The Dieffenbachia and Aglaonemas are both quintessential houseplants and garden plants, popular around the world. However, they can be confused one from another due to their appearance in their common all-green forms. Mistaking dieffenbachias for aglaonemas however, is a big mistake as the dieffenbachia can be dangerous for pets and children if mishandled. The aglaonema on the other hand, has been bred beyond recognition into these showy and beautiful foliage and brightens up Southeast Asian gardens and plant shops.

Mycorrhizae are symbiotic fungi that form a mutually beneficial relationship with plant roots, offering several advantages to plants. These fungi enhance soil health, plant growth, nutrient uptake, and stress resistance, while the plant provides the fungus with carbohydrates.
Mycorrhizae help plants become more resilient to various stresses
Mycorrhizae can improve plant vigor, leading to larger plant growth
They can also increase plant tolerance to soil-borne diseases and diseases caused by nematodes.
Trichoderma is another fungi that offer numerous benefits for plants, including disease control, plant growth promotion, and soil health improvement. It acts as a biocontrol agent, suppressing plant pathogens and enhancing nutrient uptake. Trichoderma also stimulates plant growth and development by releasing plant hormones and breaking down organic matter.
By enhancing nutrient and water uptake, these fungi can reduce the need for synthetic fertilizers.
Increased plant resilience and disease resistance can also lead to a reduction in pesticide use.
You may use these as soil drench to existing plants, but keep in mind that it is HIGHLY not recommended to use any chemical fertilizer or pesticide for 2 weeks.

Anyone with the time, determination, and space to make your own Eco-enzyme, but I buy mine online since it is so inexpensive.
Eco-enzymes offer several benefits for plants, including acting as a natural fertilizer, boosting plant growth, and serving as a biopesticide - repelling pests and preventing disease. They also help improve soil health by breaking down organic matter and enriching the soil with nutrients - leading to more robust and healthier plants.
Once applied to your potting mix, let it ferment for 1-2 weeks before use.
You may use ecoenzyme as a foliar spray too, diluting it with water and spraying dopwn the entire plant with it. Keep in mind that NPK ratio varies greatly on raw material used..

Dear plant lovers,
Welcome to an exciting, hour-long plant adventure in the Philippines 🇵🇭. This tour is a crash course on common garden and indoor houseplants from around the world, while showing you glimpses of the rarest exotics currently trending worldwide. I capture each plant's beauty while narrating my experience in caring for them. Learn plant names, where they come from, and in some cases, how much they cost in the Philippines.
Some of the highlights of the tour include colorful aglaonemas, Anthurium foliage, Philodendron hybrids, variegated monsteras, spectacular grafted bougainvilleas, vibrant foliage, jungle plants that have been recently domesticated, and—how can we forget—the Philippines’ native medinillas!
Whether you are looking to build your own garden or expand your plant collection, this episode will inspire you at every turn. The full episode link is in the description. See you there!

In the past, I shared some potting media recipe thats helped thousands of successful plant parents better care of their plants. Its time for a 2.0 upgrade after a few years.
Applying what I learnt about media fermentation, maintaining healthy bio ecosystem in the potting mix, and understanding of beneficial fungi, I have come up with a much simpler media that can be applied broadly to most plants.
Here are my measurements...
Potting mix ratio:
Rice hull 5 : Burnt rice hull 5: Perlite 2
Worm casting = 10% of total potting mix
Eco-enzyme 5ml with 2L Water
Mycrorrhizae = 5 gram with 1L water
Trichoderma = 1.5 gram with 1L water
Good luck!

Welcome to Tula House—an enchanting little plant shop tucked away in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, run by a crew of passionate, knowledgeable, and wildly dedicated plant lovers. It all started with a plant truck, rolling through neighborhoods across New York—until Christan and Ivan stumbled upon a dila~pidated warehouse and saw magic in the mess. Fast forward, and they’ve turned it into a lush, leafy oasis right in the heart of the city. You can almost feel the blood, sweat, tears (and a whole lot of imagination) that went into the transformation. The shop is steeped in Cuban inspiration, a nod to Ivan’s heritage—think bold vibrant colors, tropical vibes, and a whole lot of soul. The store has also held on to some of its historical and functional features, creating a space that beautifully connects the past and the present.
