I always say, " If they don't have the plant you want at Telly's, you don't need that plant!" I live 5 minutes away from the Shelby location & 15 minutes from the Troy location, so I'm pretty blessed!
TO Summer Rayne Oakes - THANK YOU! The video is INCREDIBLE. It is just.....precious. it really captures Telly's and us and everything George has worked toward his whole life. We really can't thank you enough. We are blown away. TO everyone else out there who follows Summer Rayne...YES, she really IS that talented, sincere, intelligent, witty, generous, eloquent, knowledgeable, beautiful and GRACIOUS. In this sometimes crazy, social-media driven world, she is truly someone worth following. Kudos to Summer Rayne Oakes!!!
It's so adorable how the owners are just spamming Summer with their plants. Lol. They're like look at this one! That one! This one! You can really tell they love and are proud of their collection. I feel need to watch this 2 more times because there really are a lot of plants in this video.
I think this is hands down, the best plant tour I've seen to date. I watch it 3 times.. It was so much fun. The owners story was precious. The only thing missing was me😊
I am beyond thrilled that you featured my favorite green house. This is where I spend my lunch break almost everyday for a mental break. Thank you, they have an amazing stuff and plant collection.
I only have one word for this nursery : AMAZING! I live in a tropical country here in Indonesia, but never seen such a huge collection of plants inside an area/nursery that vast... Thank You Summer, for sharing the story in this episode... 👏🥰💐
43:00 Wow, when he said people are on vacation, and he takes care of their bonsai and charges by the inch. That’s amazing. It’s like a pet. I feel like bonsai is one of the coolest plant topics. I always imagine bonsai owners take so much care and have so much patience. Very cute to see he boards them.
One of my favorite things about Tellys is when they have a bunch of bonsai in and I get to admire the work and artistry that went into growing them up to the size that they are
I made a stop here back in the summer and was greeted with the exact same enthusiasm and kindness. These are two genuine people and they deserve all the love and praises in the world! 🤍
Watching this was like a dream. If I had the opportunity to tour this greenhouse, I would need to be dragged out. My goodness! Such a beautiful and bountiful collection. I felt like turning the camera back to the tillandsias and bonsais though because I absolutely adore those.
I saw this video a week ago when I woke up in the middle of the night a 2am and couldn’t go back to sleepy. I thought about this greenhouse so much I decided to take a 4hour road trip from Chicago just a few day later. Trust me when I say it was worth it. Spent over 600$ on plants and didn’t regret a penny!
Another fantastic watch. I literally just finished your book and I think I watch your content more that any other online now. Keep up the amazing work! Props to your camera and drone partner! Awesome to see content at this level every week.
I must comment on the camera work, Saunders just keeps getting better, great subjects help, but you still have to know what you are doing. Of course Summer is doing her normal great job as well.
I'm going to have to make a trip here! My local greenhouses are sad or they only do outdoor plants. Its not too far away maybe a few hours!! Looks like heaven to me. For a small business they have a really large selection. This might be my new favorite place to buy houseplants (even maybe outdoor plants) I am so excited!
Yay! Telly's is my favorite nursery in the Detroit area. They have an excellent variety of of plants and great customer service. Glad to see you made the trip to Michigan!
It is so funny, growing up in the Philippines back in the 70's, in our classroom in the province, our teacher would have a trailing vine above the lined up 4 green chalk boards. The vines would start out as a little three leaf plant in a hanging water vase then by the end of the school year, it would trail around framing the boards. Little did I know those were the syngoniums! Now I know!
Summer, Tellys is by far the best greenhouse I have been to in Michigan. I’m about an hour from there and go every couple months. George is great. They always have an excellent selection. I don’t I think I have ever had a plant die from them. I was so excited to see this visit on your channel!! Thank you!
THANK YOU ,THANK YOU!!!! for this video and introducing me to Telly’s Greenhouse! We drove 2.5 hours yesterday from Kalamazoo, MI to see it and IT WAS WORTH EVERY MINUTE OF THE DRIVE! I was able to bring home backseat full of lovelies including a Philo Goeldii, Alocasia Macrorrhiza (Stingray plant) and a beautiful Hope philodendron (plus about 8 others! 😬). Love your channel and you honestly made my day introducing me to a little piece of heaven in my own state!!
as a local customer I'd love to grab an aglaonema pictum tricolor (and I'm sure many others would, too 😉). wishing it was easier to get my hands on one. I'm grateful to have Telly's close to home and providing a great selection of wonderful plants. thank you Summer and crew for making this vid!
Another fabulous tour! I can't believe the variety of plants and how substantial they are. There are no puny plants there..lol. Very beautiful and you can tell by their excitement in describing them the passion involved. I think this is one of the best nurseries you've featured. Thank you, Telly's Greenhouse and Summer, for sharing. :)
I love the story behind this store. It’s so inspiring. What a great business. Some many interesting and beautiful plants. This is the kind of company we should all be supporting. I don’t think I would come out of the store without buying a ton of plants. Thanks Summer for your continued wonderful video content.
What a wonderful collection!!!!!!!!!!!! one of the greatest greenhouses I 've ever seen. Is this man Greek ? I 'm very glad. I am Greek too. I feel very proud of you and your family for what you have done, Congrads. Thank you for sharing, Summer.
haha I was literally thinking the exact same thing. I think most of our nurseries tend to cater more to garden plants. we definitely do have spectacular gardens even if I just take a walk down the road I often come across really fun plants that aren't readily available at nurseries so I have a feeling that the plant tradition in our city leans more towards gardens rather than indoor plants. the more rare indoor plants tend to be found on fancy cpt/jhb based online stores.
Great video! I've chatted with George when I visited Telly's. I purchased a few plants from there. Good to know you were in my stomping grounds. I would have fanned out if I had a chance to meet you!!!
I travel to this greenhouse from Niagara Falls!!! April is one of the best workers there!!! Absolutely beautiful plants here!!! It's so nice that they'll tend to other people's plants for the winter and such too!!!
Thank You, Summer, Sander and Telly's Greenhouse ! Wonderful collection and tour. I needed to extract my rose seeds from their hips and this was ideal to watch as I did my work. I have 2 eyelash begonia setting amongst my primulinas and ioanthas. Too, as I work the wind is making the chimes sing along with episode and its music. Very Wise to include previous episodes for those folks just discovering. Just Awsome!
So awesome to see Telly's on your channel! I live an hour from Telly's but make the drive pretty frequently and have bought most of my plants from them. It's always cool to see what new interesting plants they're getting in.
Espectacular place! From the shiny leaves to the amazing variety of plants it looked heavenly. Amazing! Congratulations owners, that looks like the garden of Eden.
crazy how i’m apart of the family that made tellys nursery. it’s great seeing people’s comments about how much they love this greenhouse. i’m so blessed to be apart of the papadelis family and i love the history behind our business
Ok, I watched this twice, love them and the plants. Such a wonderful couple. His story is just awesome. Wish I lived near. And Summer how can you stick to not buying?
I wish I could find somewhere that has such a wide range of plants near me. I mainly order online from specialist nurseries or buy from garden fairs. His story was inspiring and will give a lot people hope, I wish him all the best in the future. Great video Summer
Thank you for featuring this lovely family business and showing casing their passion. Amazing collection!! I would say please have more content like this. It’s simply amazing!
This is the best tour, the excited passion of the owners is infectious. Getting to see the mother plants and the babies was really cool. This is actually my second time watching this, good job summer!
So blessed to call this my home nursery! George and Jan are super active in the greenhouse, extremely friendly, and truly love what they do. Like, such nice people... seriously. Not to mention the quality of the product is unmatched, and the prices are very fair. Worth the trip!
fantastic visit to this nursery, very healthy plants well established high integrity product, great selection. Loved the couple, you can see they are very well matched. May they have many happy honeymoons
@@jancalvert5275 Oh Hi Jan, your so welcome!!!! I hope the lovely Summer visits you guys again in the future and we can see the nursery develop further. Take care :-) enjoy life!!! be safe
My husband and lived in Troy for many years and our favorite thing was Telly’s. We’d go there in the winter to shake the winter blues and it always worked. George is hands down our favorite retailer - he really does spend time with anyone to educate, so pleasant. Thank you for doing this, so fun to watch!
Wow! This is one of THE best nursuries I've ever seen w/so many rare plants and I saw several plants on my wishlist 😭 lol. Almost everything they have is amazing! Anyway, thanks for the awesome tour, Summer. You rock!🎸
Wow! Telly's is amazing! How lucky are the people that get to buy plants there!? You always provide the best tours, Summer, thank you so much for this one.
Love this! So glad you were able to stop at Telly's during your trip to MI. My besty and I travel 3 hours many times a year to visit Telly's. Thank you for your tour and wisdom 🥰
Summer, I can't tell you how much I enjoy your videos. Especially these tours to such fantastic greenhouses. By far, the best plant you tuber out there. Thanks for all your hard work in producing such fascinating content.

Totally guilty. Can't contain our enthusiasm.
Jan and George are the nicest people on the planet! I recently moved away from Michigan and I miss going to Telly’s!
Wow. Thanks! Come back and see us when you're in town!
This is probably the best nursery in USA
I think this is hands down, the best plant tour I've seen to date. I watch it 3 times.. It was so much fun. The owners story was precious. The only thing missing was me😊
I was gifted the readers digest success with house plants and it is honestly such a beautiful book!
the rare plants here are insane! i've never seen such a wide variety of rares all in one nursery before
I am beyond thrilled that you featured my favorite green house. This is where I spend my lunch break almost everyday for a mental break. Thank you, they have an amazing stuff and plant collection.
This was amazing. I enjoyed everything about this video, the nursery, the people, the plants. And I agree; begonias are the next wave.
Everything wonderful in this, the people, the plants, the who.e story
I live in Thailand and have access to a lot of exotic plants, but these people have an outstanding collection and rival many sellers over here. Kudos!
I only have one word for this nursery : AMAZING!
I live in a tropical country here in Indonesia, but never seen such a huge collection of plants inside an area/nursery that vast...

This was the healthist greenhouse I have ever toured! I wanted almost every plant I saw.

Awwww. Thanks, Bri!!!! We loved meeting you. Hope your plant babies are doing well.
That is why they flourish, kindness goes a long long way.
i’m just in awe of how their plants are very full/mature like it’s so much from one pot
Love their enthusiasm and pride in their shop and collection

Amazing, thank you for the tour. One of the best nurseries i've ever seen.
Was so sweet how they shouted out their employee 🥺 that would make me so happy if I were him lol
