Join me as I unbox 16 plants from Plants by Post – a mixture of herbs, flowers, ferns, and houseplants. The fun of this unboxing was figuring out WHERE to put all of these in the garden. I experimented with putting some ferns in my backdoor shade garden, we worked in some railing planters, and more!

Love all those indoor plants
Need to buy more!
The sunpatiens looks exactly like a flower plant called in Spanish "Belén de Nueva Guinea" or "Alegría del Hogar". It needs indirect sunlight, and moderate to high humidity. You can keep at home if you want, but if you place it outside be sure to water frequently if the climate is too dry or too hot.
If you like flower plants that can grow in the outside, and also attracts butterflies, bees, and other insects; try to get any of this two plants in your nursery shop or online:
Lantana Camara
Lantana Montevidensis
Some dahlias can be started from seed – check them out at Baker Creek! I haven't done this, I have too many snails and slugs and they just chew them up right away. Also, you got the Bacopa colors right. They'll be perfect with that shirt you're wearing at 11:00 minutes. I'm planning on putting my trimmings from my giant rosemary bush down as mulch around my brassicas – I've heard that they are good at repelling cabbage loopers (caterpillars).
Would love to hear more about the Job's tears – is that new?
One of my personal favorite herbs to grow is savory. It is easy to grow while being extremely flavorful.
Hmm what else can we ask for?! a sexy plant guy who likes all plants starting from very simple herbs and flowers to more rare species hahah love your vids 😉
If you like lavender you should come and visit France, we have a sea of lavender fields here in the south, it looks just amazing to be honest 🙂
Light purple.
Hi Kevin! I'm glad you're feeling better! I like what you did with your pothos. I'm wanting to add to my very small collection. I agree, the Osteospurmum is the prettiest of the flowering plants. I've had that one before and loved it! I'll be looking for it again. I really like the lavender, too, especially the one with the dark purple flowers. Thanks for sharing!
Does anyone know much about a purple waffle house plant? I bought a wilted one on clearance from Lowe's and it's like half floppy at the base but very bushy and upright at the top.
Yes! I am one of the ppl that had killed a Fern "Helecho Macho". Not sure if its the same as Boston Fern but its the one that has thicker / bigger leaves. Anyway, this one will survive due to the previous test and trial on his family member. 😉
Your "sunpatiens" look like theyre New Guinea Impatiens….
Also… An asparagus fern is not a true fern. Its an angiosperm and produces flowers. Its care is not the same as true ferns, like your Boston Fern, which are, by definition, not flowering plants.
steps outside sounds instantly all better
Love the voice and the unboxing/prop/planting combo!
what happened to the dragon fruit plants?
I planted a row of lavender right next to my porch and they attract butterflies like crazy!! lavender is my all time FAV!
love it! love supporting fellow youtubers!
Thank you for distracting me through a seven hour tattoo session… I maxed out my outdoor garden (only have so much space in a ground floor apartment) so house plants are my next venture!
This was so helpful. I have a few of the ones featured here, and I could use the tips. Thanks!
Coronavirus exists

I lived in Temecula for like, 10yrs and my rosemary plant died in less than 1 week near my window sill. Overnight, the half of the plant that faced the window was bleached burnt and pale green on the shaded side. It only lasted about a week total but CA is the devil's toilet. SOOOO HOT!! 119' degrees in LA as I drove off to the east coast on the 40. In my area it only rained once about every 5yrs and thousands of people died in car wrecks as soon as "el nino'' kicked back in around 2007-2008 and it rained for 3 months straight. We had floods out the booty hole and now its back to being a desert with normal desert rains lol. 😀
