"I'm not gonna buy any plants." I tell myself that all the time but it never works for me 😆

Can you talk more about buying plants while traveling? Specifically customs rules around taking/bringing plants?

The vendor needs to give you a phytosanitary certificate, endangered or protected plants need special permits

Just wanted to ask that!! I was in Japan in 2016 and wanted to buy a plant.... but remembered that I isn't allowed to have them in your case or backpack. Tell us please~~~~

Chatuchak is an amazing market. Been lucky enough to visit last time I was in Bangkok, but it is sad to see several orchid species that were obviously taken from the wild being sold there. I know that it is a very delicate topic, since they are the livelihood of entire families, but cannot help but feeling sad that not enough is being done to raise awareness in different parts of the world for this problem.

We normally use crane to move the big tree in and out the market here in Thailand :)

If I was in that market, I would be doing some on the fly research on what hoops I would need to jump through to bring those plants home! I am drooling over those bare root Whale Fins (The variegated one!!! 😵😭) And those shingling plants growing up the planks of wood. Gah!!

Omg it’s so hard to travel and see all the plants you want and can’t bring home 😭😭😭 thank you for the field trip Summer!!

Visited this plant market last year & went bonkers just looking & admiring all the awesome plants. The vendors there also sell plant accessories, soil, etc - actually they sell everything related to plants.👍

This was a good one Summer! That Sansevieria Cleopatra. Now that one could fit in a suitcase.

Omg! Finally you came to Bangkok (my city). I’m your huge fan. I learned how to love plants by watching your videos. Right now I have around 15 different plants in my room. 😉

First of all a big thank you for sharing this wonderful world of plants. A night market for plants beautiful idea. Little beauty sanseveria cleopatra ,big cactus, hoyas I like them all very muh. See u tomorrow. Good night. .

Glad you're enjoying. New 'Plant One On Me' video will come out on Sunday! But I'll see you for '365 Days of Plants' tomorrow!

How you managed to talk at that market is amazing. I was speechless watching this and seeing all those incredible plants. I'm so glad you are making this series as I'm heading there soon.

I'm one of the Sanseviera fans that are up in arms 🙈 So that's where you'd find me. It was so great seeing your kid at Disneyland joy in the market. Great episode! 😊

Same here! The growth habit of Sansevierias and Dracaenas are so different (foliage straight up out of soil v. Growing from a stem or trunk) they need their own category! Also, it was only this year I learned the Latin name for Sansevierias...and my auto-correct just FINALLY learned to recognize the word. I don't want to have to start all over!

The Chatuchak Plant Market is extremely high on my bucket list. The many varieties of Sansevieria would all be coming home with me. Lol. You should definitely get yourself a Cleopatra. So easy to care for and such great rewards of continuous beauty. Thanks for posting. Enjoy the rest of your time in Thailand!!!

Thanks so much! And I agree, Chatuchak is up there for a bucket lister.

Now that is a plant market! You could spend hours and hours there. I really enjoyed this.

Super glad you enjoyed Thailand. Hope to see you on your next visit. สวัสดีครับ

This's one of the coolest plant vids I've seen. Everyone of us who watches this will trudge disappointedly to our local markets and shops for the next few weeks

I would be aaaaalll over the strange caudex plants or anything strange for that matter. Looks like I’m moving to Thailand

It’s really best that one visits a huge market like this to explore and not buy. Treat it as you would an art museum, so you can take in the fascinating beauty and novelty, without intrusive thoughts of acquisition. If you do want to buy then make two separate visits. The first to make purchases, with a shopping list, or at least a general idea of what you’re looking for. Then make a return visit only to look and enjoy, not buy. I’ve done this with large nursery’s. This is also my strategy with big orchid shows, like Philadelphia and San Francisco. It really makes for a more enjoyable experience. ~ If I had to choose, I would have purchased a couple of the caudiciforms you showed. That’s becoming my new obsession.

When I go to shop, I typically have that list of what I'm looking for so it's easy in, easy out, because otherwise I find browsing and shopping intensely draining. I think by chance, because I wasn't buying anything, I inevitably was following your exact suggestions-treating it as if in a museum, which is an excellent suggestion!

Wow! Drooling... Thank you!!

omg a night market for plants, this is amazing

Wow! and more wow! I would be having heart palpitations and trouble breathing from all of the beautiful plants that I was seeing and then thinking to myself how sad that I couldn't bring a big chunk of them home with me, my goodness the plant life in Thailand is amazing. Thanks so much Summer this is breathtaking to be able to see.

Wow, wow and wow! Can’t wait to see the rest of the series

Thank you for sharing!!! OMG ... how fun!

Holy plants! Its like plant heaven right there, I would not be able to control my plant buying habits...

I've been to Bangkok several times, and I'm hating myself for not checking out Chatuchak!!!

Wow...just wow! It's a plant lover's paradise!

Wow! What a wonderful place! I love seeing all the special places you visits. Planet heaven!

It was delightful seeing you frolic in Hoya blooms galore. :) Hoya mindorensis is btw native to my home-country. And, wow that dimsum-shaped plant pocket was an interesting see. Anyway, thank you very much as always. We're enjoying your Bangkok tour. Can't wait to see more of it. :)

Chatuchak market never disappoints. Wow, i would be overwhelmed if i was there. I can't wait for more of these. 💗

Thank you so much Summer for bringing us all around the world.🌍 And those lycopodium ... ❤️

so fascinating....Thank You Summer !

This was great! Very cool, thanks for taking us along 🙂

Loved it!!! Omg so many gorgeous plants!! Love those variegated monsteras 🤩

Wow that market is huge. Very cool plants. Thank u for taking us along

Wow wow wow thank you for ahowing hs these amazing beauties.

Thanks millions for this thrilling video!! Can’t wait to see what you discover in the day time. Love love love the Hoyas too!!!

Wow!! What a breathtaking and gorgeous bunch of plants. I would buy one of everything. Thanks soo much for taking us on this journey. Looking forward to tomorrow’s 💚

I love those plant collections oh my gosh, I'm literally drooling and have the cheesiest smile. I thought I seen a carnivorous plant! I love those and Philodendron variegated varieties too!

Wow amazing plants! And how beautiful they look at night!

Wow the hoyas are amazing I will have to have a lot of many because I will by a lot of those beauties thanks for sharing

So glad I watch this video, I always like Senseviera, I am flying to Bangkok Chatuchat Night Market, I want the senseviera Cleopatra.

The Hoya Imbricata for sure would be in my cart. Amazing display!

This video should be titled "Summer Rayne Oakes fangirling over plants in Bangkok for 15:39" haha! Awesome to see all these incredible plants!

Definitely that hot pocket plant LOL 🙃...that market is killing it👍🏼

Oh the shingles.... Love this market

Thanks for the tour. I loved all of them, but the Hoyas, Wale fins and mostly the Monstera's really caught my attention.

This is so awesome!! I would love to go there! I love the expeditions you go on! Looks like a great time! Thanks so much for sharing!!

I'm gonna buy some of those Hoyas , that huge Thai constellation, and zz albo that's new 😍

Hi Summer! I just watched the daytime video and enjoyed this one so much, too! I would definitely pick the Hoyas. How fun it would be to be able to smell the different blooms. I only have one Hoya that rarely blooms and I think it is a Publicalyx. I wouldn't even know it was in bloom until I could smell it late at night, then I'd have to find out where the flower was hiding. LOL! I love watching your videos and so appreciate it when you take us to other countries with you. Thank you so much for sharing!

Welcome to Bangkok 🥰 I went there on Wednesday and Thursday but Tuesday night is much better 💖

Wow!!! That was unbelievable. I'd definitely get anything variegated...always my favorite.

What an amazing market and now I want to go there too. Loved Hoyas but loved that tiny Senserveria more.

Unbelievable plant collection.. I genuinely don't know what to say.. I'm in awe 👌🙂

This is just heaven. Travel + plants vlog in one during quarantine. Dying.

Wow! really lots of amazing plants in that market ...

Wow...another reason to visit Thailand! That’s an amazing market , thanks for sharing it!

What an amazing market! I would have to pick up a cactus or two, a verigated monstera deliciosa, a stefania erecta tuber... and some beautiful palms I saw in the background. Thanks for the great video! 💚

Welcome to Thailand! I just went there to buy an osmanthus last Tuesday. And yes, there's just one and I had to grab it like instantly. Glad to see you're having a great time! 😁

This is the very first clip that I saw and I’m hooked! Normally I’m there to look at the cacti... as Tuesday is the day for the unusual & rare ones. But after seeing this clip, I’m thinking of getting Hoyas... LOL

hi Summer, OMG, if I was there I would buy so much, I would buy that albino ZZ plant, the Rhaphidophoras I'm in love with and so much else! Have a great time, cant wait for the next video.

its nice that you're able to travel and see plants from other countries. 😊

I have a feeling that you are holding back to grab those and excited about the whole thing...wow is the only word to describe this market.

Amazing, incredible and very very very cool! I'd buy the Sansevieria"Cleopatra'.

Thank you so much. How did you not grab some ( not steal). How could you not go insane seeing all these gifts of Mother Earth. I love all kinds of cacti.

Cool plants there. Nice to be able to visit after dark to avoid the broiling hot sun.

THIS WAS SO LIT!

My jaw dropped seeing those variegated ZZs!! Wow!!

Wow those caudex plants!

Just magical! Thx for sharing

All those Hoya blooms!!! 😍😍

Love evry plant! Thanks for showing the market. I will go there to buy plants after the pandemic.

O M G what a great plant haven! I love foliage plants but if I was at that market I would be hunting down some cool succulents like more rare haworthia and colorful echeverias Thanks so much for giving us another great video!

I love the watering cover of the bottle.
