      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!

    Summer, this is amazing!! The lighting information is especially helpful. I’ve struggled to understand the difference between light levels in my own space. Seeing the huge window I thought you would say it’s a “high light” exposure. The breakdown of light intensity, colour/temperature and direction makes it so much clearer (I have to move some plants 🥴). Thank you!! And thank you Damon for sharing your beautiful home. I’m jealous of your Biorb and beta box! 💚

    I would love to know if you plan on having a discord- it would be a good way for the community members to connect and share information and help one another, you could also pull ideas from a tab that you create called (whatever you name it) either suggestions, ideas, etc.
    the members can carry on with one another and even share pictures in a designated thread. When you get time you could also pick questions at random if you so choose. It’s a great way to organize from everything I’ve been told.
    Thank you so much for the videos, I enjoy this series and hope you’re able to continue with it.
    Much love and happy days.
