Join us for a plant chat! We sit down and look back on 2025 and see if we kept up with some of our goals as well as update everyone on some big changes in both of our lives!

We’re back for part two of our walking tour through the Como Park Conservatory with Machi and Julian — and this time, we’re exploring some of its most peaceful and inspiring spaces. We start in the Sunken Garden, filled with vibrant, seasonally changing displays of annuals that transform the space throughout the year. From there, we pause by the koi pond, where flashes of color drift beneath the surface, before ending our visit in the Bonsai room, where decades of care and artistry are captured in miniature form.

Grab your headphones and take a walk with us through the historic Como Park Conservatory in St. Paul!

In part one of this two-part series, we explore the lush tropical dome, share our first impressions, and talk about what makes this century-old glasshouse such a special place for plant lovers. Expect plenty of awe, laughter, and the kind of plant-nerd excitement only a conservatory can spark.

From towering palms to delicate ferns, join us as we soak in the beauty, swap stories, and rediscover the joy of seeing plants up close and in person.
