00:00:03 Welcome back to imamuseum.org. I'm Max Anderson, The Melvin and Bren Simon Director and CEO, and we're standing on this brisk autumn afternoon

00:00:23 Tell us a bit about the history of this remarkable place.

00:00:36 that had become in a state of disrepair.

00:00:42 That's part of our new step into the 21st century. Our vents actually open and close using a computer.

00:00:59 Sue, I see a large variety of plants. Give us a sense about how this mixture came to pass and what we're doing here?

00:01:11 So, this is very much like an art museum. We are cultivating plants that are of interest in a contemporary style, but we also have historically accurate plants in relation to the past.

00:01:24 This is ultimately going to be our interpretation space where we will link better to the Oldfields properties. We want to tell that historical story.

00:01:45 We are standing in the shop of the IMA Greenhouse, and we are here with Lynne Habig who is going to tell us a little bit about some of the things that are both underway and planned for the shop.

00:01:54 Hi there! One of the things that we are very excited about is our signature series that will highlight the plants that we are known for on the grounds

00:02:05 And what makes us distinctive as a shop in this community, would you say?

00:02:22 Thank you, once again, for visiting imamuseum.org at the Madeline F. Elder Greenhouse. Come back soon, and we'll give you some more insight into our remarkable grounds and collections at the IMA.
