48 Hours in DENVER, Went to See COOL PLANT SHOPS - Vlog 054

I got into Denver early for a talk on...you guessed it...plants, but I had some time on my hands after the plane ride in, so I thought I would check out the Denver plant scene. I was surprised how many plant shops Denver has-so this is by NO means an exhaustive list (and my apologies for not dropping into EVERY plant store), but think I picked a few good ones.

Love seeing people who are excited about what they do!

[@stelonkangabam4567]

Just loved his enthusiasm in his work, the first guy. 🔥

[@CrochetxStab]

I really love this sort of impromptu showcase of these wonderful businesses. It made me wish I lived closer so I could visit every single one.

[@ElikeIke]

I just love the flow. It all feels more fun like a personal experience with each of the shop owners.👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🤗

[@JordanWCole]

Just stumbled across your channel with my 8 year old daughter. As Denverites we loved this episode!

[@debbielee9624]

Shop dog Lily has my whole heart 🥺💖

[@frostxr]

Plants, dogs, creativity, my type of crowd.

[@joannanovara815]

Thanks for spotlighting plant shops in Denver! I live in the area and "Overgrown"(as a lot of us affectionately call it)is a fav! I have not made it to Planted yet but now it's definitely on my list 😊

[@cheyennemoran1937]

Overgrown is my favorite! Also a little more affordable than some other shops in Denver despite offering only more uncommon plants. Great folks 😃

[@lorirober2536]

Excellent video- I so enjoyed seeing all 3 of these shops. All very different and unique. Thank you- I missed your houseplant videos.

[@ladyd8028]

Mile High happiness! ☀️ Thanks for the [vicarious] adventure.

[@k.s5889]

Very nice , love all of the plant shops

[@pipoc2]

I LOOOOOVED this episode! Beautiful stuff. Cheers from Bogotá

[@donmcallister3745]

What great plants, shops…and friendly folks 👌 Thanks Summer…!

[@lisaalbarras3029]

oh wow, what a cool guy. I love seeing younger people getting into plants and woodworking to boot, that gives me hope for the next generation !

[@suerivest3651]

I would so go to both those places if ever in Denver, thanks for the spot light, really cool, love those woodworking ideas too , helps inspire others to look at things with the ability to repurpose it in a way you may not have considered.

[@SaxonLand]

Shout out to Luke Huss, its so awesome to see him and his store doing well!

[@claud1834]

Sweet video. Nice to see someone with a passion. I like that u don’t interrupt the interview, love all your vids

[@audreylundmisner8888]

This was so awesome to watch! Thanks for sharing this with us! I love seeing different plant shops! Love the plantshop doggies also! 💚 🐕 💚

[@STEAMLabDenver]

So cool! Thank you for sharing. I live in Denver so this was extra special. ❤

[@bryanbeakley4190]

I lived in Denver for 8 years and just moved away. Plant Garage was always my favorites b/c they were one of the only plant stores that carried unique cactus.

[@hbcbvdo]

Next time you gotta check out Terrorium shop. Amazing shop and Amber and her partner are such cool people.

[@nikolaybondarev7407]

Hope these shops slay!

[@raycrou8837]

[@RoseR7997]

Very nice💚

[@mhamza-mw9rj]

Omg I'm here in time

[@susietedlund]

I love your hair

[@harri4329]

Hello Summer, the winter is arriving. How do you prepare for the diminishing light levels? Do you move your plants to better places, to different windows, tighten the rows under your grow lights? Do you lower the temperature in your apartment for higher relative humidity? Which plants of yours struggle and which survive the winter better? You're dividing your time between two homes and have longer intervals between watering. To reflect that are you planning to fine tune the potting mix? Change the material of your terracotta pots into glazed ones? Or are you revising your collection towards more drought tolerant plants? Do you have any experience on self watering pots? Could you be our guinea pig to test and find beautiful self watering pots and the special substrates (like Lechuza-pon) they recommend to use in them? Thank you for your inspiring content!

[@mimosveta]

Just the girl I wanted to see :D Before I start a video, I was wondering if you could explain how does one tell the difference between stem, and petiole? For additional context, I heard that ZZ plant doesn't have stems, that all we see are leaves, and what looks like leaves, are leaflets, that means what looks like stem, is a petiole. But is there a concrete difference between the two, and it can't be any other way, or was it just a decision by scientists to say "let this be a petiole, to confuse the hobbyists". Maybe a crazy question, but I have adhd, I now won't be able to sleep until i find out

[@mariaclark6313]

The locations? Where are these places in Denver?

[@ot7stan207]

hmm. time to move to denver.

[@leeloocarson]

😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘

[@swissmissy3804]

Hippies

[@sylviagutierrez7676]

Great and very welcoming plant shops. The wood work is just unique,love it. 💚🌱🌵🪴

[@stonedan0]

You looked at the wrong kinds of plants while you were in Denver.

[@Thegirlinthewhitevan]

While she's talking Im looking for what they have lol im only an hour away from them

[@kelvarnsen1749]

Its always cool to see woodshop and plant enthusiasts building creative things together

[@FloridaRareTropicals]

If you're still in Denver PLEASE go to Flora Foundry. Nick is one of the nicest guys in Denver. He's all about sustainability and connecting with his community and neighbors. Focuses on rare and exotic plants all locally grown in Denver.

[@summerrayneoakes]

Yeah it was one of the ones that was closed on a Tuesday, strangely enough, which was the day I was there. A few were (surprisingly) closed on Tuesdays and even Wednesdays.

[@FloridaRareTropicals]

@@summerrayneoakes Aww yeah I remember back when I lived there he was closed Tuesday and Wednesday. Unfortunately for me, since it was my only days off. Still, I managed to get off early a few times to go and chat. Probably my favorite plant shop in Denver. I highly recommend anyone Thornton/ Denver area to go check him out! :)

[@joannanovara815]

Yes, Nick is amazing!

[@kyrad6543]

oh wow a plant store I haven't been to! Thanks for the tip! Where can I find their hours?

[@willcookmakeup]

Oooo thanks for the tip, I live in Cherry Creek so I'm gonna have to check Flora Foundry this weekend.

[@wigglewiggle3789]

That thrill of discovering a new plant nursery. It's like an adventure. That buzz. And then leaving, quite often considerably poorer. So worth it.

[@jelliecarpio5212]

Tumubo halaman dito meroon tinik yes amen iwtbhpjc yeyeman 😂😂😂😂😂😂💛🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@terrizimmerman5297]

I love the woodwork that Luke has incorporated into plant life at PLANTED. Repurposed wood into unique stands and risers is beautiful!

[@cherylyeo25]

Really really really love the 1st plant guy owner - very very cool sustainability with that crazy beautiful art wood design. wonderful!

[@nathanielshine5234]

Thank you so much for this video - I literally just moved to Denver and this is a great starting point to check out some new shops :)

[@FloridaRareTropicals]

Check out, Flora Foundry and The Bronze Petal

[@STEAMLabDenver]

Welcome! I hope things are going well for you. ❤ 🤗

[@M88JABER]

Thank you Summer for taking us with you to all these amazing planty places

[@sashastarshanti3599]

Yay Denver! Thank you Summer, I'm from Grand Junction, CO. and it's wonderful to get to visit the Denver plant scene with you this morning. A surprising treat.

[@amyblevins4814]

Love this. I’m just north of Denver and I’m excited to stop by these little gems you’ve discovered. I was especially drawn in by, Planted, I’m definitely going need some of his wood accessories to show off some of my collection. Have a great time while you’re here.

[@maryannguess7115]

Love OLLIE and his dad.great plant shop. Great plants. Great woodworking. ❤️ 😍 💖 the shop.

[@TheNukegirl]

Loved watching this! It made me so happy to see people earning a living from their love of plants and creativity.

[@rareplaid]

I love Overgrown!!! I have so many plants from there. They got me addicted to Hoyas🍃🍃🍃🍃

[@lindylou3519]

Love visiting CO! I always go to The Flower Bin in Longmont. It’s outdoor & indoor nursery.

[@kyrad6543]

My territory. I just heard on the news today that Colorado ranks in the top for highest number of houseplants per person. Planted has long been one of my favorites. Luke is one cool dude. He was doing the boutique plant store thing before most.

[@YahyaouiSoufiane]

The vibes and enthusiasm that these plant shop owners put into their shops make me smile 😀I think you should do more of these videos. Thanks Summer

I live in Denver and just learned of a few shops I haven't checked out yet from all these comments: Terrorium Shop, Flora Foundry, The Plant Room, Reroot! And I will def be checking them and Overgrown out soon! Datura in Central Park is also a fun one. They're half plants and all things plants and half other really fun items from jewelry to crystals, to socks and gum that talk shit.
