Please Touch Imperial Philodendron huge leaf Conservatory of Flowers Golden Gate Park San Franciso 20240130-150122V

            The Conservatory of Flowers in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park is a five gallery exhibition of living flowers, plants, and trees. It is like a museum of tropical plants. Like most places that contain sensitive exhibits, whether art, animals, or plants, we would expect a sign asking us not to touch. Not during this visit to the Victorian Greenhouse. The information sign next to the giant Imperial Philodendron leaves reads: Please Touch! This huge leaf (is) from the Imperial Philodendron. Look up to see the huge vine on which it grew.
Hanging aerial roots allow this vine to absorb water from rainfall, while the rest of the plant climbs to the canopy in search of sunlight.
Pretty neat!
