  • While on a short stopover in Detroit, MI, I was told that I "had" to go see Telly's Greenhouse in nearby Troy-a four-decade, family-owned and operated greenhouse selling houseplants, annuals, and perennials. Well, let me just say I was bowled over with their wide selection of some very hard-to-find plants-not to mention how nice and full many of their plants were. Dare I say they might have a BETTER selection than most plant shops in NYC. But you can be the judge of that!
    More about them on their website: www.tellys.com/

    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!!!

    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.

    • @cixeau2449
      @cixeau2449 3 года назад +1

      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.

    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.
