    Now I'm curious about the difference between stainless steel and chrome. According to Wikipedia chrome is a technique where a protective layer of chromium is put on something metal. Stainless steel is a mix (an alloy) of iron and other materials. Both are pretty resistant against corrosion and easy to clean. So, I guess when something is chrome, it has a coating, and when something is stainless steel that's the material itself.

    I was delighted to see Benji getting more of a platform but as for the tour itself I found it disappointing. I really disliked Paige's presenting style but that's just my opinion. More importantly I thought the quality of the video was poor, no excuse for a KZreadr to not have good audio. She also didn't seem to have researched the house's style before doing the tour and had to constantly ask Benji... At that point just let Benji give the tour!

    super cool that you're going to be venturing into doing activities outside of the social media sphere. I know I'll never fully understand but I can imagine it's a bit tiring to share everything you do with the world. it's nice and important to just do things for yourself from time to time.

    Benji, Congrats on your new endeavors! You have proven your passion and talent in plant design! One thing for sure, I certainly enjoyed your collaboration(s) with JiaHao in putting on the social events involving plants. The atmosphere was surreal with beautiful and natural plants "strategically" gracing the rooms. (I don't I think I even seen a wedding reception with that type of vibe)! So, go for it! I will be looking forward to them all! Hugs!

    I've always wanted to get into ceramics. My grandma used to do ceramics as a hobby and also sold stuff and it's where my love of it started to grow. Where is the pot from at 8:19? It has a cactus in it. The yard is really taking shape. Client-based plant design seems like a very natural transition from what you have been doing in your own home. You're a natural at it. Gigi and Theo are just the cutest! I hope when you're not pup sitting, they get to have regular play dates!

I have a leather fern in a huge antique clay pot that belonged to my grandfather, my Nonno. He was the head gardener at the Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco many decades ago. The fern is flourishing, but it’s so overgrown in the pot I can’t imagine there is any soil left! I do not know how to get it out without destroying the plant and the pot. I would love to see you work on something like this in one of your videos. Thanks so much for all of your tips and your lovely Zen videos.💜

    I used bonsai wire before, but I didn’t like how it cut into the stem and made marks. I removed the bonsai wire and now use twine instead. I tied a knot at the top of the plant, bent it down, then held it in place by tying the other end of the twine to a lower portion of the plant. It ended up looking kind of like an (archery) bow

    Benji, have you done a video showing the technique for that bent ficus? If not, any plans to do so? Also about that black lamp, honestly I think it would work better if the lamp were a little bigger, or, if you put 3 small pictures/art in a vertical row to the side of the lamp on the wall with the existing picture. Two would probably even work. Small though, like maybe 5 to 6" and square. But I don't really know what I'm talking about. Love the video, thank you, enjoyed watching the dogs playing too!
