Dear plant lovers,
It was late spring in Shanghai, a nd I’m plant shopping with a dear friend Johannes, whom I’ve known for over a decade. Many of you don’t know this… but I used to live and work in Shanghai.
The city has transformed beyond recognition after ALL these year. I DO have a fun travel episode on my personal channel “Onlysean”, My Shanghai Travel Vlog: https://youtu.be/FXOoTrVCSDY?si=GSmgdf62EZhczw28
Now, Johannes is a Philippino expat living in Shanghai with a charming apartment and a youtube channel. He is looking for some houseplants for his apartment on this fateful day.
Address: 国际花艺时代广场(虹桥古玩城)
上海市闵行区虹桥镇金汇路528号
During our shopping spree, I share tons of useful plant care tips for advanced plant parents like Johannes.
This includes ferns, caladiums, orchids, schefflera, thaumatophyllum and more...
Ladies and gentlemen, this a rare glimpse into the plant market in China. We come across tons of unique plants neverbefore featured on this channel. And in some cases, some of the common plants we are familiar with - were grown and displayed in ways that are surprisingly beautiful, and uniquely Chinese! I walked out of this experience feeling TOTALLY inspired.
If you see something peculiar or interesting, let’s hear it in the comment section!
