It's time for Wonderful Adventure now Korea!
The flower shopping edition
[music]
We are here to get plotted plants for the You Are Here cafe
and I'm really excited so Soo Zee and Lee have accompanied me here
we're going to pick up a million flowers
We've even prepared space for it and I hope I don't get my nails ruined... let's go!
[music]
Oh my god
There are seriously so many beautiful plants here
[music]
Smells good.
Smells amazing, it's like we should just come here to get away from the city air
[music]
Ok, so I think we've decided on the flower choice. I want it to be like a wildflower garden.
So we're doing like maybe echinacea in the back and then something a little bit shorter in the front
and then a little bit lower in the front from there
[music]
The hunt continues
We'd kill orchids if we got any
and so like the water plants
Oh here we go ivy
Ivies, yay!
Ok or if you can find morning-glories, those are beautiful
It has like a flower that opens up and looks like a circle like a horn
My mom has a million of these that's what she loves to get
and they just grow forever no matter what happens
We have birds' nests in them and they're like, "We're doing ok guys"
I just hate the way they look
I'm not going to get any
[music]
I want one more. She gave me one!
Instead if you cannot bargain say, [speaks in Korean] and she will give you one
Success!
We have a merchandise wall where we're going to be selling the Talk to me in Korean Workbooks as well as some Eat Your Kimchi Crew special edition stuff
and in between is kind of like empty spots so we want to be able to have like little cactis kind of around
I also like the ones that are like hanging
I'm not sure yet
[music]
[Martina in a high pitched voice] One day I'm going to grow up to be a big cactus and then I'm going to murder you
That's not very nice, let me put that one back down again
[music]
It's like a cupcake
Oh, this one's about to flower and that's going to have a tiny little flower!
I shall name you Frederick
and now we're going to have to name every single cactus that we have here
This is going to be [speaks Korean], and this is going to be [speaks Korean], and this is going to be [speaks Korean], and Frederick!
[music]
They just bought a bunch of cactuses
They're talking things like perennials and using words like perennial
I don't know anything about flowers
[music]
So we're looking for stuff to buy for our herb garden
Might be because it smells incredible right to have basil or lavender or rosemary beside you
and then the mint will be awesome to have in some of our drinks like mojitos [Soo Zee: Yes!] or like a lime or lemonade
The problem is mint will overtake your garden
so we have to think of a way to grow a lot of mints but in a controlled fashion
I'm thinking we get a bathtub
No, just me?
That's not rosemary?
That's rosemary, that's lavender
We've got mint, apple mint, they have different kinds
so this is apple mints and they have the peppermint and they also have a another kind of mint
But what I like is that if you look at the leaves, you want to make sure there isn't a single insect on it because
if you have one single tiny one, there's like 10 thousand somewhere else
almost every single mint pot I bought in Korea has been destroyed by insects
If we get a Citronella plant then we can keep different insects away
and then we can even use like the clippings to kind of dry it
so for the patio area
Oh, it smells nice
Yeah
All the stuff we bought! So far...
So I don't know what these are but we got them cause they're cute
and then these are little cactuses
and then we got some Echinacea
and then Martina got two little Lavender plants
[music]
And we didn't have to fold the seat down
[music]
Oh this car smells... nice!
Aww wow!
[music]
Alright so we already got plants yesterday
Today I'm going to be doing a, planting of some of them because it's so hot that they're starting to die in their pots
I'm glad Simon came along to help me
Oh boy
[In deep voice] That's it for now
[music]
I just want to say
today was supposed to be the hottest day in Korean summer thus far
the day that I plan on planting in the garden makes me super grumpy
Hey I like your hat
[music]
No big deal or anything but it kind of does this
So hot!
Right?
[music]
Notice the wild Martina in her natural habitat
Puttering about, grunting with sticks incoherently
She has things she look, she smells something, must be her own body odor
What could that be?
No wait
She just farted
[music]
