      Summer Rayne Oakes Summer, your friend is easily enjoyable (very peaceful energy; I can certainly understand why you two are friends). His goals are totally obtainable, and for the most part, his desire to incorporate plants into his space reflect what all who cohabitate with plants want. He’s lucky to have your expertise to bring his hopes to fruition. This was a thoroughly enjoyable video. It just goes to show that there’s NO need to be put-off by living in a concrete jungle, especially when living aside plants is an option. You both are charming 💜. Damon, the Chinese Evergreen is a lovely home Plant Damon, too. I invite you to take a second look - particularly at the nontraditional evergreens like the Red Siam (low-light, No fuss, lots of beauty) it’s a BONUS!

    I'm a botanist and trained horticulturist, but as with all of us, you never stop learning. Your videos are extremely educational, entertaining and relaxing. I love the quality of the videos, how in depth they are, and naming all the plants and showing them off is wonderful for those I'm not familiar with.

    I got three medium-small size plants in my bedroom and my mental well being over all has improved significantly. I also noticed less dust particle in my room and the humidity level is perfect. The plans also act as sound cancelling and the dull green leaves decreases my anxiety episodes.

    *"Thaumatophyllum"* means "Miracle Leaf." There are about 20 former Philodendrons that grow on a sturdy trunk that were moved to this revived genus a few months ago.
    Damon knows philosophy and would probably work that out.

    Looks great! I did notice that his Ficus Lyrata is close to the heat vent in the north eastern window, just wanted to add that I also kept one in a near identical space and it LOVED the light it got there and put out so much new growth all spring, summer, and even in the fall all the way into late November it was still pushing so much new growth out, but then I turned my heat on during Thanksgiving... Unfortunately it took me a while to realize the heat vent was the source of my problems and at that point it was too late and my poor tree didn't make it. After days of research I found out that my apartments forced air heat brought the humidity way down in my space and was pushing out dry, warm air right toward the plant (I only set my heat to 65-67F so I wasn't necessarily blasting it), and being within a few feet of my heating vent my Ficus threw a fit and dropped ALL of its leaves from the dry air blowing out near it. He might not have the problem I had but I just figured I would say something just in case!

    • @summerrayneoakes

    I am impressed with how engaged David was with learning about his plants. This was not just a "come fix up my apartment" request. He seemed to truly be interested in interacting with the plants he wanted in his living space, which is one reason I think we should have plants in our living space. Like you, Summer, I can see soooo many more plants in that space! This was a fantastic video, all the way around.
