Weird and Wacky Houseplants with Araflora - Plant One On Me - Ep 072
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 чер 2018
- My trip to the Netherlands back in February proved to be such a fruitful trip. Though I was there for less than a week, I wanted to make sure I made time to meet some of the growers, and Gert from Araflora was highly recommended to me-not only for his knowledge and passion, but also for his weird, wacky, and wonderful collection of plants.
There are quite a few varieties here that are not easily findable in the states, so I hope this video really expands your imagination to what plants you can possibly grow indoors.
I was lucky enough to take a number of Gert's plants back (thanks to Ronald from Fertiplant). You'll have to sit tight for next week (spoiler alert) because I'll be doing an unboxing of the plants then.
If you want to check out Gert's plants, you can do so at araflora.com/. Just remember: if you're importing plants in across countries, you'll need a phytosanitary certificate (and perhaps even an import license)! I used www.fertiplant.nl/en/ for my Phyto from the Netherlands.

6:33 I laughed so hard, I was watching this as an informative video series, and all of a sudden I get bombarded with "insect shit". "The ants are living here and shitting here." LOL Love your channel!
so glad you're enjoying!
OMG, shitting inside the plants... I'm crying, that was so unexpected and funny. get him back on he's HILARIOUS! Really enjoyed the banter between you two as well, you should present a show together! loving the field trip editions, I have binge-watched them all weekend!
she was surprised and smiled and laughed inside. :))) shtting
@@grammyyelog it was the moment he realised and said "oh i said shit" and shes like "Some people may be offended by it..." subtext *but I'm not* - made my day. It could of been edited out but I'm SO GLAD it wasn't as its one of my fav UA-cam moments ever.
hahah typical Dutch humor, we aren't afraid to be a little offensive
@@claymountain1300 not as offensive as it is simply stupid.
@@nonrepublicrat dutch humor is stupid?
In the UA-cam world of beauty ,meme and prank channels it is so amazing that you are dedicating this channel to plants..much needed!
glad you watched and appreciate the information :)
Yeah this channel is amazing
They "shit" in there. Lol I chuckled. I like this episode!
I too collect unusual plants. But this collection has me drooling. Love the rarity of all.
totally drool-worthy.
"you see little hair and you think, why this plant have little hair?"
the translation is so cute.
It’s so good. “This plant make house for ants.”
@@summerrayneoakes I've always enjoyed listening to people use English when it's not their first language because often the way they put words together teaches us a new way to look at things.
@@barbll000 *its also cute*
@@WestSide-hl1dl the ants: its free real estate
i love his personality! keeping it real 😂
Whoa! I’ve never even heard of ant plants! Thanks for the new info!!
This is by far one of my favorite episodes, Summer! I love all of the back and forth. Awesome episode. I can't wait to see more like this!
glad you like!
The Netherlands rocks for growing plants of all types! I have had the honor of visiting there a few years ago, and I can truly say that I enjoyed every moment! Awesome greenhouse visit Summer :-)
During lockdown it’s so amazing getting to watch all your videos and binge watch it again
I absolutely love the way the botanical names just comfortably roll off your tongue, Summer! You truly are fluent in plants and I love your channel. You are the queen of green!
Thank you for showing us Araflora. I did not knew them and they have an amazing variety of plants, which are usually hard to get. Gorgeous revelation!
i hope @AntsCanada would get one of these as well 😁
Such an amazing parade ! 😍 Thank you very much for sharing 💕
Omg! Shut up & take my money! 😍😭
haha best line ever.
GisForGangsta 😂😂😂

Omg
Girl you just sent me over the edge 🤪 I was trying to cut down on my plant buying and then you did this interview.... I am drooling

Fascinating plants! It’s amazing to see how plants adapt to their natural environments and how the insects use them for shelter and food!
There were so many I didn’t recognize here...absolutely amazing I’m in love 😍
Wonderful collection!!! 😍😍😍
Gasp! Summer said a bad word! ;) Awesome collection!

I'm soo glad you took your time going through these. The tiny varieties have sparked a new passion for me of miniature gardening

Thanks, I always enjoy watching these interviews.

Fabulous showcase of some rare and beautiful plants. Thanks so much for sharing!

Fascinating information...I enjoyed the video.
Uh oh.. This guy Gert is so very passionate about his work and..
I think maybe a match :) This was a great episode!! My favorite so far
I am in heaven!! That itty Peperomia prostrata is my favorite and it's also currently blooming like the one in the video - tiniest little blooms ever!
love love love your channel. so inspiring and informative, keep it up!!
Loved this video! So interesting to hear of his expeditions and discovery of plants. The carnivores plants have always caught my attention since seeing them in a botanical garden when I was a child. I still remember my parents explaining it to me.
I'm wondering if you incorporate travel to do modeling with visits to cool plant locations? Either way, I thank you for incurring these expenses on our behalf.
I really love all your plants and accessories! Amazing!
This collection is too beautiful!! :) I found Gert to be so awesome as well! Glad you got to visit.
he's great!
Another great video! You guys are both so knowledgeable and fun to watch!

I really love this video and the unboxing! I follow you for a while now on Instagram and always wondered your connection with the Netherlands (cause of the name of your chicken haha) . I live close to Aalsmeer so maybe I can check this place up sometime! 🌱💚
Very interesting, educative, and funny!
I hope you have another unboxing in your future with some new goodies. Hopefully you’ll do a update of your apartment plants after the construction. Best wishes and have a great day!
That's next week (spoiler alert) as per the description above! ;)
So interesting seeing plants I never saw before. Nice video
glad you enjoyed.
Oh shit! The best episode!
your channel is really cool, so informative and to see so many varieties of unique indoor plants. love it so much
so glad it's inspirational for you! Thanks for tuning in Bryan.
New to your channel, I deeply appreciate your visits to professionals, it's always interesting to hear people that know more than they are passionate. I'm in the south of Portugal, same level as San Diego
Wow! This is one of my favorite Plant One On Me videos yet! Great showcase of many varieties that we don't see every day! What was that pine cone looking one at the front left area of the table? Do you happen to know? 🤓
What a collection!
indeed!
Wonderful episode:)
thank you for watching!
Love u and ur Channel ❤️❤️❤️
It's wild to realized just how much my reptile community crosses over into the plant community
Fish and amphibian communities too!
This was very informative and entertaining I know I sound like a broken record everybody said the same thing. But it was indeed entertaining because you had so many different plants that I've never seen before I might have seen their bigger brother or sister. Awesome!👉👵👈
I love when u visit places. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Great video! :)
This is why I chose to continue study in the Netherlands. Dutch people are so passionate with what they love. Gonna check his web. Groetjes uit Nederlands. You have one new subscriber in NL.
I am from France and I 💖💓 so much Araflora, haha ( the choice of species, cultivars, hybrids etc.. proposed is JUST "WOUAHOOOO"!!! 🤩🤩🤩🤪🤩🤪💓💖😉😉😅)
Love to see such new collection, THIS IS 2020 guys :O
I love this video
Great episode. The guy on there was entertaining and informative.
he's totally passionate.
Such a great channel and LOVE this episode! I'm in love with all these varieties :)) The ant plant totally FREAKED me out lol. Thought that the house variety would have a bunch of ants inside Ahh! lol. Love the symbiotic relationship though:) I really want to buy the "mirror plant".
They go to quite some fairs throughout the Netherlands and other countries in Europe, mostly terrarium fairs. I went to a few and bought a few plants every time, for a great price. They are really nice and are always helping.
I really love that dischidia Ant plant that looked like little bowls. I want it, I want it
LOL. You were funny in this one.
so interesting.. people's passions and love's
What a beautiful accent 😍 nice plants too
nice. so this is where you went shopping in the netherlands. thanks.
Summer, if you return to the Netherlands, don't forget to visit the Hortus Botanicus of Leiden University in Leiden (close to Amsterdam). You'd love it, both for the plants and the unique location. If you are in need of a tour guide, just send me a message :)
Oh no, reading this made me sad. I was in Leiden for nearly a week last year, I missed this (walked by it late at night when it was closed), and I have no idea when I will be back :(
@@lalaleonalea It's been two years, did you go back?
@@Darenim I haven't been yet! My wife just got her green card (we're in the US), so international travel for the sake of travelling is finally on the table, and we will definitely go eventually ☺
@@lalaleonalea Haha I did not expect you would answer! Good luck my friend. In the Netherlands, most things are currently opened as the pandemic is 'under control', so you'd be free to roam around Leiden and the Hortus. Quarantaine is still a thing though.
And everybody:
BIPINNATIFIDA... ooo macarena!
First off , thank you for all the videos and information you have given us. It helped me a lot as to how I should look after my plants. If you ever find the time, I would be most grateful if you could make a video explaining different grow lights and what you would recommend as a cheap solution, just to get a bit more hours for some of my plants during the winter {herbs and such}. Oh and I will definitely plant one on you. Thanks and please keep up with the videos.

Ant plants are amazing!
aren't they? They seem to be becoming more available.
this is such a nice video this guy is such a refresher from the carniverous guy
I love all the different personalities.
Hi love love love all your plants,can I ask you where do you get all your plant pots from.xxx Gloria
New sub!! I love your channel!!😀😉😊
thanks for subscribing!
Summer Rayne Oakes 😊
Infatuated with the ant plants. How very interesting.
Gosh! Do you ship to Switzerland? Loved this video!
I love rare plants..😋
So beautiful .I'm a new subscribe .
yay! thanks for watching and subscribing to the channel.
Hey Summer, somebody needs to tell that nice guy that plant at 12:30, it isn't a cactus. I think it's what may be commonly called a mesem, something in the Aizoaceae. It is Trichodiadema densum, in the ice plant family Aizoaceae. Those spines on it look like they come from areoles, but the growth habit is really weird for a cactus. Those spines are on the end of leaves, not tubercles. And if there's no fluff at all at the base of those spines, that indicates they aren't areoles, so it really can't be a cactus.
Found the "Mammillaria" at 12:30 at a local garden centre. It is Trichodiadema densum, in the ice plant family Aizoaceae.
wow satch a rare colection i like it. maybe i start looking hire in the woods.
what a strange and unusual plant!
Weird and wacky indeed 😍😍 summer, if the pandemic is over, please visit Indonesia

'they are shitting"... well damn...lol!
Geeky ant plant question: could ants move-in to the bulbs/structures? -- I often have ants in my home. Personally, I think it would be really cool.
Not sure! You'll have to ask the ants!
I really like all these shady houseplants and miniature ones.
I saw those ant plants in nature and I watched ants crawl all over them! I never put it together.
Wow you're in the Netherlands? I'm Dutch hahahah that's great 😊
Great country, good people!
I liked the small plants. I live in the netherlands.
I don't know if u can visit the place, but i would like to get one or two plants from there.
I'll check the websit.
U really are good in remebering namens of plants.
I see some video's im a New subcriber and it impreses me that u know sow much of plants.
I enyoi ur video's. ♥️👋
I’d love to hear more about the plant hauls from these places you visit-unless you leave without picking up a thing, which would actually be very heartbreaking!
that's next week (spoiler alert) as per the description above!
Yes, I just meant in general, because you’ve gone to so many different places and very little is mentioned if you picked up some new aroids, an orchid maybe, or even a new favorite peperomia?! Looking forward to seeing the goodies :3 ps is there a story behind your signature overalls :)
