Steve's Leaves Houseplant Unboxing - Ep. 041

[@lleung6755]

I knew she would buy some plants. Never expected she would buy that much. She is one hell of a house-plant parent.

[@summerrayneoakes]

Can't...help...myself.... :)

[@stitISH]

@@summerrayneoakes i got the same bug , i can't have enough plants

[@nataliekassirer6361]

I feel as though you and Adriene (yoga with adriene) give off the same aura and it's awesome.

[@xenic101]

Gotta love an unboxing video that starts with popcorn?

[@sannaplomp183]

I loved that you mentioned the Netherlands! I got a mini pilea peperomioides in a 2 inch pot for about €1,79 which is $2 in the US. These plants are still very popular. We call them the "pannekoekenplant" (pancakeplant)

[@BrigitteCoffman]

Greetings from Tulsa Oklahoma. I just placed my order to *Steve's Leaves* ....love the selections! Prices are great too! Thank you for sharing his plants with us!

[@feddycecklare8449]

I AM SO HAPPY EVERY SINGLE TIME YOU UNWRAPPED THOSE PLANTS AND DESCRIBE THEM ONE BY ONE. THANK YOU FOR MAKE MY DAY.

[@omaam1005]

Hey! What you doing here! Hi Princess! Boy! You gits around. Thank you very much for your expertise with plants. Whaa, that's about 20 plants from Steve's leaves. Looook, I'm only pushing to 150, a max of 200 plants. I'm nowhere near 150 but I got my goal. Afta dat, I'm done. Can't help myself right now, these specimens are just the BOMB. Just made, with my own two hands, a floating shelf from the ceiling. Yup, its secure. It's looks great. It's in my bedroom. Congrats on book. Well, have a great weather season and a peaceful Holiday Season. JESUS LOVES YOU AND FAMILY. John 3:16-18.

[@supervet0077]

You started my obssession with plants, I'm going to buy my first one soon!!! :)

[@daughteroftheking2979]

Oooo...come back and tell us what you got!!👍

[@MegaLaban12345]

I bet you have 100+ plants at this point✨

[@powerbamgaming9395]

You go girl ❤

[@Lalunegreen]

I m a plant lover too . Nice to See How Lucky you are :)

[@balljointeddoll]

Beautiful collection! It would be wonderful if you could please include the names of the plants in text on the video or in the description box. I'd really love to research some of them but sadly they are new to me and I don't know how to spell the names.

[@summerrayneoakes]

That's a great idea. I should have included them in the video. Maybe I got a little lazy on the editing ;)

[@lkasdlf]

Can you tell me what the very first one was? I can't seem to find it?

[@rossclark9155]

The second plant looks like a Stapelia Lepida or toad succulent or pagoda plant. Or! Orbea variegata (carrion plant). Sun bleaches and hardens but, forced in containers, tobustly propagates in clusters. In shade, hold back watering so not get mushy. Flowers in both conditions. The flowers that are produced are spectacular velvety blooming perhaps two to three times for only several days. The flowers smell god-awful like rotting flesh if you put your nose close enough. The story is they are native to South African beaches where they grow abundantly and are a balance in nature between the infusion of flies not liking the smell. If you can find stapelia varieties you'll see the most spectacular flowers in the succulent family, I kid you not. Just google stapelia images.

[@emmanuellecordier7517]

@@summerrayneoakes that could be really cool! I'm french and the american accent is a bit complicated! I have no time to note the name!!!

[@lauragalli3036]

@@summerrayneoakes can you tell us the name of some shops to buy all over the world? or good ones?

[@dianeblack6866]

love the way you describe the plants like you're the M.C.of a fashion show..funny and fun to watch

[@garyfriedrick9941]

Steve's Leaves loves you, as do we all.

[@urbanrat84]

I really enjoy your visits to Steve's Leaves, such a beautiful place. I'd be happy to live nearby a nursery like his

[@jeanettejackson1876]

Steve's Leaves thank you for taking care of our green godess. Love is giving and receiving. It is a circle. May all that you both do come back to you triple fold!!! I am definetly buying from Steve's Leaves.

[@alexiapons2883]

What a wonderful, entertaining and educative this video was!!!Loved it, and I got to see Kippy. She looks sooo cute!!!...and fat. Pretty.

[@summerrayneoakes]

It's been 2 years and now Home Depot sells pilea peperomioides for $6... 👍

[@ebonyharris11]

The peperomia at 11:52 was my favorite! 😍 I want!

[@MsLouisVee]

Wow. I’m impressed with their packaging which is so different from Hirts which throw their plants in with styrofoam peanuts!!!

[@floridahiker1503]

I got 2 Syngonium sp. erythrophyllum from Steve's Leaves and put them in a 29 gallon terrarium with a T5 flourescent daylight bulb and kept the humidity at 60% and they grow like crazy. Their dark color makes other plants colors stand out especially those neon chartreuse aroids.I anxiously wait to see what syngoniums Steve introduces in 2020.

[@slizzynguyenner6442]

Pilea had been on my buy list forever but it was always $$ for the tiniest 🌱...i ended up finding a 4” for $7 at TRADERS last weekend!! You’re so right!!

[@erin8635]

That's crazy how expensive it is/was in the states! Here in Australia you can get 4" ones for like $5 and HUGE ones (like 10" pot completely overgown) for $50

[@theplanttrader6522]

I love your unboxing ceremonies! I’m so glad you’ve shared these. Steve’s leaves has become one of my favorite online nurseries. I’ve never once received a bad plant from them. Thanks for sharing.

[@xoallison12ox]

Happy Thanksgiving! Loved this style of video! Peperomias look sweet! 💚💚💚

[@afthoniachavvah6466]

I am so inspired by you, omg

[@Allaholic7]

Big up ones self!

[@CogniVerseHub]

My plant obsession started with your videos, when you were featured on the barcroft i think it's called.

[@Pulchritudeiseverywhere]

Great haul

[@amyl.shultz1121]

Now that’s an amazing unboxing!! So many interesting and gorgeous plants!!

[@sarahcabrera6291]

Hi Summer! I was wondering how you spell the peperomia plant from 11:56. Thanks so much! Love your videos

[@nonameneeded9267]

It's a peperomia hoffmannii :)

[@PleasantPrickles]

I am really impressed with your plant knowledge! I'm going to have to check out Steve's leaves! Thanks for sharing!

[@yukikaur774]

Thanks for sharing wonderful videos. Can you please share how do you hang plants pots and take care of them.

[@greentape7817]

I really love it when people say "this is a cissus". It must be in my top ten favourite phrases.

[@hpeteacher9445]

I am drooling over your plants, the ones you unboxed and in your home. Unbelievable. Did you go to college for Plant? You speak it quite well. A friend that lives by me has a jungle in her sunroom. She juyst went to Hawaii and wanted me to water her plants. I was honored, but was afraid something would hapooen. Her plants have been with her FOR YEARS! Thank you for sharing! 😁

[@icemancometh8679]

Why didn't you crawl inside her suitcase so you could go with her I mean damn

[@lindagood3091]

Is there any way you could add the names of the plants in the video description? I love some of the plants you unboxed and want to get a few, but I have no idea how to spell the names. Thanks, if you can. :-)

[@marilyn3605]

Does the chicken poop everywhere 😂😂😂!, I love your chicken!! Btw send me the duplicates!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻😍😍😍

Ah, chiken~ ❤ Love your videos, Summer!!

[@daughteroftheking2979]

Wait, that's a brilliant idea. Edible packing popcorn!! Because the styrofoam ones are never going to biodegrade. 🙌

[@hanaleidesigns8539]

Great haul. I’m beginning to appreciate and learn more about Peperomia’s. So far I have 2. I just found and bought my first Pilea 🤗.

[@PlantHoardingAdventures]

hey can you give me the name of that first peperomia? i count guess the spelling and for the first time google let me down lol

[@taylorsprings6290]

[@tinamarieussery3063]

Can you list types like you do links or flash names. Not able to get names of ones i like cause my spelling sucks

[@jayarobinson3868]

Hay summer love your channel, and love your little amazon you made in your home I feel home when I see you with all those plants, so, want to know what is that plant name black velvet leaves with pink line in the middle than you

[@Kareltje1749]

*I am a plant nerd, I love it*

[@moniquecatalina1322]

I've gotta no how are you holding the plants on the wall that's so nice I love your videos

[@lynnhurst8331]

Are his plants typically that big? I've never ordered online but would likely order from him if so.

[@hanzifaction]

Keep growing the collection! When you have time or need video ideas, you should make a care video on your maiden hair fern. I've been thinking about getting one, but have never grown a temperate fern like that indoors.

[@summerrayneoakes]

thank you for your question. Multiple people have asked for this! Adding to the list. Also, question for you: what are your biggest challenges that prevent you from being the most awesome plant parent ever?

[@hanzifaction]

Summer Rayne Oakes Hey Summer, thanks so much! Looking forward to it. Biggest challenge me for as a gardener, eh? I'd say the creepy crawlies! Specially mealy bugs and scale. The sight of them gives me chills lol. I lost some good bay laurels to scale.

[@icemancometh8679]

Ding dong, yes? Hi Summer did you get your delivery we made last night? Oh yes, I'm just doing an unboxing now. Well we have the rest of your order out here. The rest of it? Oh yes it was such a large order we had to use a semi. Okay boys back it up! Beep! Beep! Beep!

[@whitneypickle]

My only issue with Steve's Leaves is that I never see a name on the nursery pots. It usually says stuff like "Foliage 2 in" and similar. I have many of his plants because at the nursery I visit in DFW, they sell some of his plants and they are always small babies, which I LOVE getting younguns.

[@lvoecloud]

I'd love to see a close up of all your plants. Makes it more detailed to watch :)

[@gyeonjinearctic5650]

Cool stuff in there! They're growing some neat species plants.

[@milacaibal3976]

Very lovely and interesting collection of plants. Thanks a lot for sharing your goodies. Love them all. 🥰🥰🥰

Cissus and tetrastigma look identicle.. but. Tetrastigma can cover an entire house in a year. And is basicly liana

[@ravindrachaturvedi2278]

I feel like gifting you a scissor with green handles. the blue one doesn't go with all the other green accessories you have

[@marilyn3605]

Omg is that a bottomless box?? 😂😂

[@MeezerGurlMakes]

You and "Desert Plants of Avalon" have alot in common for the sheer volume of plants in your homes. LOVE your channel!

I’m into air plants looking for something that is a shade plant with not much water.

5:20 What's the name of this plants??? pretty good...

[@Alypinkflower]

can u tell me the name of this tiny leave on wood at 6:38 Ur unboxing video is building my wishlist :)

[@ColtonWitt]

ahh the begonia pavonina!! That has been on my list for a while so I am excited to see its future with you!

[@judywilliams1863]

My monstera leaves weep moisture. Is this normal?

[@lorettaturner9144]

Wow! I have not heard of the plants you unboxed and I feel it would be so much fun to unbox plants!! I love the different species of philodendrons and my recent one I got is the lickety split version. I love and enjoy tropical houseplants and do love to collect them. I have nearly 300 and still I want more. More so, I want rarer varieties. Thank you for your share. Loretta in California.

[@DerGrueneBaron]

can you recommend some documentaries/ books about plants?

[@mariusmostys672]

Check "The Private Life of Plants" by David Attenborough.

[@summerrayneoakes]

I definitely have to do a video on this. Thank you for the question. Also, question for you too: Curious on what your biggest challenges are that prevent you from being the most awesome plant parent ever?

[@khaledayoub8785]

Is that small peperomia with the weird latin name also known as peperomia raindrop?

[@hpeteacher9445]

Hi Summer! How are you? My plants from Steve's Leaves came today. Wow, you would never know the flew from Texas to PA. They are so healthy and gorgeous. I got the String of Pearls, String of Bananas and a Pilea. Not one leaf was bruished or dropped off the plants. Thank you for steering me in the right direction to Steve's Leaves to buy plants online. Gerry 😎 PS: Darren is the man! He is who I dealt with. Made it way too easy. 😎

[@alang13]

Hi...if you see this, check your Twitter page. I really like the peperomias I got from Steve's Leaves ('Clover' and Boivinii'). I want more but they're not available on his site now.

[@nibiruthecat7652]

My house is slowly but surely becoming packed full with beautiful plants!! You are such an inspiration Summer I cannot explain the joy your videos give me! I am wanting to plant my Rose of Jericho which has been resurrected.... Any tips? Love from Ireland x

[@hpeteacher9445]

Hi Summer! Just wanted you to know how impressed I was with you, your plant knowledge and how gorgeous Steve's Leaves plants were, I finally ordered my first plants online at his website. I ordered a String of Pearls, String of Bananas and a Pilea. I am so axious to have my first unboxing. Thank you again! Gerry

[@ashleym289]

No one understands until they get the same kind of passion. I was fortunate to build my first glass greenhouse and do play heavy metal as I also love heavy music! Plants are so important, and also creating habitat for bees and other animals/birds/insects is extremely important. :) I could go on and on- great chanel!

[@maksqwe1]

I love how I expected like a few plants, but they just kept coming. Also the chicken roaming around is cool too. Reminds me of stories told by my grandmother about how her childhood home used to be like this. She's also very into plants and now I think I'm getting hooked too. Anyone willing to share knowledge or a website to learn more is appreciated!

[@baritone777]

Lovely channel. You're encouraging me to get more ambitious with my houseplants. Also, you have a chicken in your apartment.

[@leydi7690]
