Back in the Bronx, are you feeling like Jenny From the Block? Don't judge her for the rocks that she's got. She's just, she's just the Jenny From the Block. She used to have a

little now she has a lot, and I never knew the Bronx was so green. That's what I love about coming out here. I love showing you guys this different side of New York City. I was telling the duchess earlier that, you know, New York has so many different faces. You know, we could be in so many different types of landscapes other than desert. We have literally everything here within the five boroughs. You think Jenny hasn't been around that block in a while. She came around for a photo op anyway. Everybody follow a great live streamer from the south of France. See what it's like to live on the Bay of San Tropez with Maxim. Beautiful day outside, nice and warm. The takeoff pattern from LaGuardia is taking the planes right over. Look at this. Let's begin at the beginning. Begin at the beginning. That's an old-timey song that begins at the beginning. At the end of two yards, I

shall give you your directions at the end of three yards. I shall repeat them at the end of four. I shall say goodbye, and at the end of five, I shall go. Going to do that on a live stream today. Anything could happen in New York, yes indeed. Useless trivia: the Chicago Panical Garden is opposite to the New York Botanical Garden. Oh, interesting. Oscar Contreras, absolutely the greenest city in the world. Madame Butterfly, ponia ler fly. Look how pretty that is. Oh my Lord, good to see you, Dave Jeff, out there in Niagara Falls. Welcome, and Carl out there in Canada. Good to see you, J Chulo. Welcome. Me and The Duchess are romping through the Garden today, and the signal at times may get a little weird because it is a little funky in here, so please bear with the signal. But so far, so good. Nature is amazing, absolutely. This is the Hop Conservatory right here. Massive shout out. You're more than welcome, Edgar. Love those red trees, yeah, me too. But this is the Allison Wonderland.

curious nature exhibit that has taken over the entire New York banal garden. Now we're not going to go inside the greenhouse here because one, the signal is kind of crappy in there, and two, there's only like one photo op in there, and it's not that impressive. But we have these trees that come to life over here that we're going to see in a moment. Good to see you, JJ. We have the peons out. Yes, we do. Isn't that lovely? Absolutely, Carl. A wonderful Friday exploring the New York Botanical Garden. Yeah, CB Earth, they wa. You get to see this. This place here has so many different faces. It really does change quite a bit as we make our way around. Good to see Ed Allen. Another beautiful day, another beautiful Brooklyn and queen, and we're in the Bronx right now. Beautiful Bronx day. Yeah, the park reminds you of Alison Wonderland. Oh yeah, so the New York Botanical Garden is in the Bronx. We are in the middle of the Bronx, kind of. Let's see if we can see these move.

Good to see a Lee and shaky Dave. Welcome. Let's see if they move for us. These are like corrugated fake little trees that light up from the inside. So if we come here at night, these light up. Let's see if they move on us. Let's see if they move. They're supposed to morph into a mushroom, into a tree, and vice versa. Jonah Bron, that's right. He has to Dutch person who used to own the land up here. That's how we get the name the Bronx. Good to see you, Sarah C. Welcome. Okay, move for us, is itou? I don't know. I don't think it's... I don't know if it's... That's good motion. Is it motion activate? That's true. Let's see. Are the emotion activated? I doubt it, but... And Virginia wed lake with a $5 Super Chat. Virginia wedlake, thank you so much for the very generous five Super Chat. Thank you so much. Join today's $5 Club. Much, much, much appreciated with a big $5 Super Chat. Virginia, thank you so much.

for sponsoring our adventure today in the New York Botanical Garden. They like shrooms, yeah. Here we have an illustration of them. I'll show you guys the illustration here. So, this is Fold House Art Collective Shuman Lumen. Oh, this is from Burning Man. Shuman Lumen from 2016 is made of corrugated plastic, aluminum, steel, and steel of variable sizes. And uh, here it is installed in the Black Rock Desert there at Burning Man. So, these things morph, as you see, they light up, and they're from Burning Man, man. You get some shrooms, man. Woo, no Jim, we could not have asked for a better day. The sky is amazing. Look at this. Look at this shot here. So pretty. The minute they move, I'm going to turn around. Shro, yeah, maybe if you clap. Maybe if you clap like music activated or maybe music activated, yeah. No, you walked next to them and they moved. So anyway, but yeah, it's all micro do I like.

that April. It's all micro do so we have these little plantings here. See like this. This is the um. Oh there it goes. They're morphing. There it goes. It's morphing. Woo. The shrooms are kicking in. There they go. See. See how cool is that. You saw it move. They sort it move. But these you know as Allison one land. We have our cards here in plant form. Is that isn't that trippy cool right. Yeah acid colored ones. Burning man lightings. Yeah you know burning man. You know I I thought Burning Man was cool until I realize it's just like a rich you know programmer plays kids uh hierarchy. There is like Google sets up a special food truck for their employees at Burning Man. You know it's like the tech Bros there. A place where where Tech Bros could get their uh anyway. Let me here's that beautiful Conservatory again. We could hear the the Metro North train. That's how we got up here. Took the Metro North up here from Grand Central. Leaves you off right here at the

doorstep of the New York Pangal Garden. If you take the subway up here, you got to kind of walk a distance, got to walk a bunch of blocks. But wait until we get up to the Rose Garden. It's oh, do we have a butterfly there, some butterflies there, exactly April. Yeah, no April. Once I found out that like the performers are like the peons and the tech bros are like the higher upper echelon of the hierarchy there, of the caste system that is Burning Man, it turned me off from it. I used to really want to go to Burning Man, now not so much. But the train from Grand Central, it's only like what, 20 minutes? Yeah, it's quick. It's like 20 minutes from Grand Central. We got a little bee, look at a little bee working hard, working hard. It is beautiful here, JC Droid. That's why I'm taking you guys out here today. This is why I'm taking you guys out here. We'll be back in Manhattan tomorrow, so for people, people who want

that Manhattan content. We'll be back in Manhattan tomorrow. Photos from around New York. Good to see you, buenos Diaz. Having a great time up here in the Bronx. Tomorrow's going to be hot. Tomorrow's going to be in the mid-80s, so it's going to get nice and warm. Oh, let's go down this way. Look how pretty this is. Look at this romach. Good to see you. A lovely day for a garden stroll. Yes, indeed. Yeah, Manhattan, it's for tourists. Yeah, I know we see Manhattan all the time, so it's nice to get out here and enjoy this. It's peaceful. We're going to be in one of the last bits of forest here within the five burrows. We're going to see a waterfall, and you've got to hear those planes take off from LaGuardia. The takeoff pattern takes them right over us, so you've got to hear planes every couple of minutes. It is peaceful, Susan. Yeah, but romanuk, it is great to see you. Yes, indeed.

this takes us around. You're more than welcome, strawberry. Thanks so much for hanging on out. We're going to be here for a little bit. We're going to be here for a hot minute. We're literally going to try to show you guys all of the landscapes here in the garden. Oh, this takes us back outside. We turn around and this takes us back outside. Whoops, purple queen. We're in your Lake nugget of woods. Good to see you, Lake Nona Sports. Welcome. Oh, all that pollen coming off the tree. Those trees, right? Look at these. It's like Florida. It's like Florida, but purple. Purple queen, you're up in the Bronx. Good to see you. There was an idea for a corporate party to go to Burning Man. Unfortunately, went to IA instead. Okay, makes sense. Oh, that makes sense. All right, yeah, let's head into these amazing areas here. It's hard to imagine. Yes, we are in New York. You more JC Droid, you know have no idea how much that means to me when

you say that I'm happy that these streams brighten up your day with beautiful flowers. Oh yeah, know no, we're not in Queens, we're in the Bronx. We are in the Bronx today, but LaGuardia takeoff patterns taking them right over us. So that's why you got to hear these planes fly over our heads. Did something went up my shirt and it's dining on my fat belly. He's like he wants some burger, he needs some protein. Is the Bronx next to Brooklyn? No, the Bronx is actually connected to the US Mainland. Everything else is on Islands. So Queens and Brooklyn are on Long Island, the Western tip of Long Island. Staten Island, it's obviously Staten Island, its own Island. And Manhattan Island, likewise, it's its own Island. New York City is like an archipelago, but the Bronx is the only part of the five boroughs that's on the mainland. But yeah, it's also North, also the most Northerly borough. If we keep on going north, directly next door to the

Bronx is Westchester County. See, look, there's the takeoff pattern. You see that plane just took off from LaGuardia. So, where we began here at the nursing home, at the little café here, me and The Duchess had some lunch just now. Yes, this is the biggest park in New York City, is here in the Bronx. That's Pelham Bay Park, and that is somewhere where I want to live stream. But I tried to live stream there a long time ago on the Periscope, and I remember that there was like no signal in there. So, maybe in the future, JJ, the café was pretty good. A little overpriced, but then again, you know, they have you buy the balls, so to speak, here in the garden. I see a rabbit. Yeah, exactly. It's the only option unless we leave the garden. But look, he's late. He's late for a very important date. How much art did we see here in this little fountain? Look at this. How cool is

this the little rabbit here. Look at that. We saw kasama art piece in here, and then we saw another art piece after that too. The food was great. The food was great, April. The food was great, very refilling. I had like a grilled chicken wrap, and The Duchess had chickpea sandwich, a Conan. That's right, yeah buddy, cute top, a. Are you right? Oh, look here now. This little tram here makes me feel like I'm in Disney World. Is that cool rabbit? As we come over this hill, you'll see a live streamer off to the left-hand side, stopped for refresh. Why does he wear a jacket but no pants? It's a cartoon thing. It's a cartoon thing, Oleg. So, up to our right-hand side, this is the Children's Garden, and the native plant garden is just up ahead. But now we're going to go start looping around the Forest, last little bit of natural growth forest in the five buros, straight up ahead, the th family forest. Yeah, know they got they got a a

tram that does a really great loop around the grounds here, and we've done that in the past of the live stream. We have done the tram. Here's this little water course here. This is where we saw another kasama piece, The Narcissist Garden. Here got a couple little waterfalls in here, and uh be nice asks, can you bike in here? No, you cannot. It'll be nice if you could bike in here, but no, you can't. But I know that for the tour Bronx, which is like this big bike ride here in the Bronx, then they sometimes do route it through the gardens here. That's beauti, so it's only for special times. So look, we got some people maintaining these massive, massive trees here, and then I don't know if we're going to be able to see this. Um, there's a bit of the here for the Alice in Wonderland exhibit, and we'll see this from a distance here. They have this really cool Mirror Mirror thing here. Yeah, yeah, we're going to be right

underneath them, so we'll stay right here at a distance. Can you guys see the weird mirror thing? Look at that, like a cool, cool mirror thing that takes you into the forest. It's pretty cool, pretty, pretty cool. But good to see a fwn Marie. Aloha, beautiful walk, beautiful day for a walk in the garden, absolutely. And now we're in the forest. I mean, this literally smells like Pennsylvania right here. This literally smells like Pennsylvania, but it is gorgeous out here. Now we're hoping to see the little baby chipmunks because the duchess loves her baby chipmunks, and they're around. Yeah, lots of shist, lots of shist around here. That's these outcroppings of rock. Oh, I think we have a chipmunk. Let's see what we have. Oh no, a bird, a little bird. But yeah, we got some of the Bedrock of New York City around us, the shist that enables our tall buildings to be built. I know there's a little

squirrel. That's a black squirrel with a brown tail. Look at that, that's unique. H shist load of rocks. Look how cool he is, that guy is cool. Fancy squirrel, wow. As you see me and The Duchess speak squirrel, next time we come here, we're going to have to bring squirrel food. Yeah, he maybe. There's no foxes around here though. There's no foxes, but there are possums and raccoons here in the New York banal Garden. We're now to our right-hand side is the aelia garden, and to our left-hand side is the th family forest. All the school cool squirrels are out now, all the cool little squirrels are out. Smash that like button if you like cool-looking squirrels. Look at him, oh he's so cute, he's so cute. Hello buddy, hello. Oh The Duchess, he the Dutch, he gets the duchess's. The Duchess gets his attention. Good to see you Dan and the man, welcome photos from around New York.

Welcome. Smash the like button if you like this nonsense. Hey, first time seeing one like that, right, Desiree? Good to see you. I'm telling you, you never know what you got to see here in New York. [Laughter] Oh, I know he wants a bagel with lox. Yeah, oh, look at this bird going to fly right past us. There you go, in Canada, white, white albino squirrels in your backyard. Nice, Paul. Yes, indeed, color variations of squirrels. He's posing for you. He's [Music] posing. Oh, he's going to come over to the, he's going to come over to The Duchess. Sunshine after rain. Good to see you. It's a secret. What you doing over there? What you doing? How you doing, says the squirrel. How you doing? He's really hanging out. He's really like posing. He's totally checking us out. He's like, put me on your Instagram, right? He's on the YouTube. He's on the YouTube. He's doing [Laughter] good. You see all these squirrels. See

that that that squirrel is the influencer of the New York Botanical Garden. Look at this. Can you believe we're in New York City? We got some butterflies flopping around here, and oh yeah, look at that. Wow, squirrels are creepy like rats. I don't know, they're cute. Listen, they're all trying to survive just like me and you, so they're just doing their [Music] thing. He wants to be a... everybody is a [Laughter] [Music] star. Squirrel, squirrel, Jade, DeNiro. You talking to me? I'm looking for some nuts over here, and he was live stream sniping. Yeah, now to our left-hand side is the TH family forest, and we're going to walk through there in a little bit. Paul, good to see you. You respect squirrels, but yeah, you keep their distance. Yeah, wow, these must be the VIPs. Hey Frankie, I'm famous now. He probably has a channel there, Strawberry. Yeah, Mr. and Mrs. Metalhead, good to see you. They're cuter than rats. Yes, I think we

could all agree that the squirrels are cuter than rats, but it is really nice out here, quite beautiful. They taste better too, yes indeed. What if Han Solo was a squirrel and just argued with Chewy the whole movie? Yeah, Justin, you never know. They taste better to Wildlife. It's Wild America with Dutch Moss. I'm changing my name to Marty [Laughter] staler. All right, we're going to hang the left here. Used to eat lunch in Central Park, and the squirrels come right up to your bench. Yeah, oh my God, grilled with lemon butter, ladies and gentlemen. Now before you now in front of us, the oldest tree in the whole garden. This tree is like 200 years old. Look at this thing. Look how massive this thing is. Unbelievable. O but this Black Oak here at 5 ft tall with a trunk diameter of 57 in. One of the grandest trees in all of New York City in Banal Garden, estimated to be at over 200 years old. It was a seedling at the time of the

American Revolution more than a century before the founding of the garden. Pretty impressive. And this tree has been designated as a God bless my love. This tree has been designated as a Heritage Tree by the Sandra P Rose, by Sandra P Rose, in honor of Adam R. Rose in May 2011. Isn't that cool? So Mullen, good to see you Mullen. You're asking me if I'm allowed to film in the Bronx Zoo. Uh, we have done a live stream in the Bronx Zoo. Yeah, yeah, yeah, last year we did it. It looks good for his age, right? Freaking 200 100y old tree. Now we're about to go over this little Stone Bridge here. We're got to walk over the Bronx River right now, but we will be walking along the Bronx River in a little bit. And I'm going to show you the waterfall down there and all that good stuff. No, you can't climb it Dan man. You pinch your tent, stay a few days. Meo, good to see a Meo. I don't think

you're allowed to pitch tents here in uh the New York banal Garden unless it's like you know prescribed but now you can tell your friends that you see one of the oldest trees in all of New York City. Check that one off, yes you did. Yeah, it looks younger. Yeah, no, it's 200 years old. Mr. and Mrs. Metalhead, hope you all are doing well. Hope everyone's doing well on this beautiful Friday. Coming up next, we're going to head up this hill and it's time for the Roses. We're going to head into the uh I think it's Peggy Rockefeller Rose Garden. The Old Stone Mill off to my left-hand side right down over there. When we get by the waterfall, we'll get a closer view of that. But now we're going to make our way up the hill here. You always amazed with my knowledge of New York City. I am a licensed New York City Tour Guide, so this is my job. Lorraine Raymond, good to see you. Land Rover, a gorgeous tree.

Absolutely, it's hard to imagine we have the entire borough of the Bronx surrounding us here. We're going to the Rockefeller Rose Garden coming up next. Quantum chemist, good to see you, welcome, welcome to the New York Tea Garden up here in the Bronx. Me and The Duchess working on our tans today. We're going to get home a lovely almond color. Then after that, we could just, we're ready for the beach after this. We are ready for the beach, right? Cool art. Oh, that's right, we got a really cool art piece coming up, part of this Alice in Wonderland exhibition. And I was not expecting this. This is something I did not know was here. So here is an art piece by Yoko Ono called Play It by Trust. Yoko Ono created this white chess set in 1966 to comment on the futility of war. This unique game neutralizes the conflict inherent in gamesmanship and encourages players to enjoy each other and a surrounding garment in the moment of illogical play, just like Alice in

Wonderland chess anyone, and you could play with this. You could, you could. We could play with this. I think these are plastic, if I'm not mistaken, right? Yep. Oh, they're heavy too, and they're like plastic, but you can play this. It's pretty cool, and I was not expecting a piece of artwork from Yoko Ono to be here, right? It's neat. Look at that. All right, now we come around here. All right, very high brow, but now, ladies and gentlemen, here we go, ladies and gentlemen. The other day, we had a beautiful rose garden in the brook and bangle garden, but now get to your places. Here is the Rockefeller Rose Garden right here. Good to see you, Quantum.

Oh, we want to see the bunny. Okay, we'll stay in here until we see the [Laughter] bunny. A rose by any other name. The rose recurs in and recurs in mythology and storytelling worldwide. The symbolism of roses only adds to their wide appeal. Sub Rosa, meaning the rose, is something to be kept secret. Roman banquet rooms were decorated with roses to remind guests that whatever happened

at the party stayed at the party in ancient Greek and Rome. In ancient Greece and Rome, the es were associated with Venus, the goddess of love and beauty. The Birth of Venus is often depicted with seafoam that turns into white roses to represent her beauty and purity. It is said that the rose bush grew from a pool of Adonis's blood, symbolizing immortal love. Roses have also appeared on the coats of arms representing different family names. In the 15th century, the War of the Roses, two families, the House of Lancaster represented by the red rose and the House of York represented by the white rose, battled for the English throne. In Victoria in Victoria, England, roses uh the flower dictionaries signed assigned different meanings to different plants known as fluorography, the language of flowers, and arrangements were used to convey secret messages. Different flowers were organized by season, lore, and meaning. The color of the roses has come to convey different messages to its recipients. Red roses serve as a symbol of love and passion, yellow friendship, and white as

innocence and purity, so little a little rose story here by any other name. Allose, I give you only a song dying away from the soundtrack of the vagabon. [Music] King, good to see you there, ladies and gentlemen. Today is the last day of May, May 31st, 2024. Thanks for letting us know, Tyler. I did not know that.
