Dimitri can relate to the 'eyes glazing over' part. He thinks he's beginning to understand, though.

"Fascinating -- if Fódlan has any flowers like that, I'm not aware of them. The greenhouse at the monastery includes an orchid collection, though, so it's possible those are among them." Because this is definitely the most important part of the conversation.
