Thailand is home to many outdoor and indoor flea markets. We stumbled across this amazing plant market in the heart of the city by chance. We were looking for a park to exercise and the market happened to sit in the center of the park.

The market was home to a variety of plants for both in-doors and out-doors. Since most peoe live in aparts and condos the most popular section was for indoor plants, or air purifiers.

We bought a few of these air purifiers to improve the air quality in our apartment. Hopefully it helps. I'm not sure how effective plants are with cleaning the air, or how many plants I would need to make a noticeable difference.

The plants came in all shapes, colors, and sizes. There were baby seedlings and fully matured trees.

One of my favorite things about the market are these cute shopping cart! Unfortunately, there is a brick road that they aren't very conducive to, so my excitement didn't last. I never knew flower pots could cost so much. We eventually opted for the cheapest most durable pot.

The market even sold these custom flower pots and statues. Unfortunately they were out of our price range so we had to pass them up.

The entire time I was at the market all I could think of was how my mom would love a place like this. She has always been obsessed with plants and helping them from. I can't wait for her to visit Bangkok so she can see this hidden gem.

Check out one of our new plants perched on in it's new home!
