Transform Your Home with 200+ Plants: A Tour with the Plant Queen in Brooklyn

June 11, 2024 by Jeremy Lindy in Real Estate

Step into the vibrant world of Christopher, the Plant Queen, as he takes us on a tour of his lush, plant-filled one-bedroom apartment in Crown Heights, Brooklyn. This video reveals how Christopher has masterfully incorporated over 200 plants into his living space, creating a green sanctuary that is both beautiful and therapeutic.

Key Points Summary

  • A Green Sanctuary in Brooklyn: Christopher, the Plant Queen, welcomes us into his colorful and vibrant home filled with over 200 plants. His space is not just a home but a living, breathing garden that offers a sensory experience from the moment you step inside.

  • The Journey to Green Living: Christopher began his journey to green up his space in 2020, starting as a personal passion that grew into an educational endeavor. His home now serves as a testament to his dedication and love for plants.

  • Daily Plant Care Routine: Taking care of such a large plant family requires routine and dedication. Christopher integrates plant care into his daily life, pruning and tending to his plants while enjoying his morning coffee.

  • Creating a Microclimate: Despite living in a city apartment, Christopher has created microclimates for his diverse plant collection. He emphasizes that with dedication, anyone can cultivate a thriving indoor garden regardless of their living situation.

  • Personal and Emotional Connection: The tour also highlights Christopher's personal spaces, including a shrine dedicated to his late mother. This area, filled with plants, serves as a reminder of his family's support and love.

  • Designing with Plants: With the help of his friend and interior designer Calvin Resnik, Christopher has crafted a space that reflects his personality—vibrant, playful, and lush. The collaboration has resulted in a home that is both aesthetically pleasing and deeply personal.
