I've been looking for a plant designer in vain. I'm glad to have stumbled on this channel
Finally! I’ve been struggling to figure out how to incorporate my 100 plants into my small apartment without making it look like I live in a plant nursery. Thank you!

Thanks so much, Beverly, I’m so happy I could help! I have a few non-plant videos up next in the pipeline but I’m already gathering ideas for the next plant styling one. Should be fun!
Excellent video! Thank you for so many great ideas.
Fun video. I'm not a crazy plant person but I do struggle with not buying more plants. I'm always looking for a way to bring more into the house without it looking cluttered.
Love your home and all the natural light that surround your living space.

Great video! I think I am a minimalist collector 😅 I loved how you arranged your library, but still would remove some of the plants 😅 Hoya australis hanging in the window looks beautiful! I don't have a lot of plants atm, because I might be moving countries this year! Starting new, small collection will be so exciting for me! Thank you for your video!

Am in that collector phase. Not too many, so in my mind I just feel like it's becoming too much. Yet, I just found out Amazon sells plants .... so guess who just ordered a bundle of 12 new houseplants? 🤪 🤣 Will be incorporating these tips and creating my cozy jungle corner turning into that crazy plant lady ..

I love plants. Have them in my apartment. But one apartment was EXTREME
New to your channel as of today! My place doesn't get a lot of light so I use the under cabinet light in my kitchen for some of my plants. I have many low light plants: ZZ plant, snake plant, etc. because I only have two East facing windows. I love your windows. The architecture in your home looks great. Is it a craftsman style home?
@alexdesignsstuff

Thank you! Yes it is, I’d always wanted a craftsman house, and I finally got my wish. They have so much character and the light here is great.
Can you do a video on how to decorate with plants based on placement in your home i.e. closer to windows , bedroom with one window or bathroom with no windows at all. TFS

Hi Millette, thank you for the suggestion! I’ll add this to the list. Thanks!
love all of the approaches 😍 your plants are gorgeous. As i inderstood, you live in area with lots of natural light? I don't have many plants but i already struggle with additional growing lights, all the wires and lamps :(

Thank you! I do generally get lots of light in my living room, library and dining room but there are other areas of the house where I don’t have much light and have had to use a grow light. I’m currently experimenting with how to get the most out of them while also hiding all the wires, but it’s definitely a challenge!
Ohhhh your very minimalist snippet made me laugh out loud! Thanks 😊 And that pyramid idea is fabulous! Thanks 👍

Everyone appreciate plants and the wilderness natural environment but nobody appreciate God who created all this wonderful things for us. People are too ''proud' to acknowledge it and are simply self centred and unappreciated . God created all this beauty in abundance and GOd is creative, meaning he created the environment to be all different , different insects, plants , trees, and even humans we are and the environment everything is unique . When God finished creating the Earth and the Universe, he said '' it is good'' ,!!! and should say to God '' good it is '' !! and thank you.

I have an issue buying colorful pots. I started out on buying white and soon gave into different colors. My problem is I love pots as much as i do plants. Ugg , I may need to reconsider my weakness to pots. In my defense they are mostly all shades of the same colors, bluish grey.
@alexdesignsstuff
Жыл бұрын
Hi theemeraldcity, thanks for your comment! If your pots are all shades of the same color I think they’d work great together. I’m currently working on a plant shelf video where I’m going to explore combining different colored pots. I’ll test some different combos out and share the results soon.
Where did you get your monkey lamp? Great video.

Thanks Heather! The monkey lamp I found on Walmart's website. It was a hardwire fixture so I also found a lamp conversion kit on Amazon. I added both links to the description. Looks like the lamp is currently out of stock unfortunately, but if you search Walmart's website they might have other similar ones from other manufacturers. Hope this helps!
What about planted aquariums? (I saw you have one)

Ooh yes! I did forget to mention that. It’s a great opportunity to bring in some really unique plants. They grow and spread rapidly though, so that’s something to keep in mind.
