Whether growing plants and caring for them full time is your thing or not, whether anybody’s obsession is your thing or not, just watching someone talk about their true calling in life is such a beautiful experience. Their passion for it, the peace they’ve achieved realizing it and the way it lights up their being is so attractive.

I love to see someone's personality in their homes and not a copy of a magazine or somebody else's house

She is a different and special human being. Reminding us so much about various aspects of ourselves. Glad she exist and amongst us.

„Hey neighbor, I go on vacation. Could you take care of my plants for a week?“ „Sure....hey wait a minute....aaargh...!“

She's the most fascinating person, I could listen and learn from her all day. A wonderful human being - so refreshing.

Spends $30 on furniture and $3000 on pots. I dig it.

I like how raw the video is. It really makes you feel you are walking around the house with her. It didn't try to cut or added too much music to fill in the story, which makes it relaxing to watch.

Does anyone feel calmer and more relaxed after watching this video?🙂🌱🌿🍁

Just another beautiful treasure in Brooklyn that makes it impossible to call any other place home. What a glorious video! The love that she has for her plants and critters is not something that everyone will understand. I do. Being a cat lady is often misunderstood, but the world needs more caretakers of sentient beings now more than ever before! Brava... 🌺💚💗

As a child, my favorite 'trip' was to visit the university greenhouse.The moment I entered, the smell was wonderfully overwhelming as growing things have a marvelous odor (like rain and cut grass) and wrap you in that world. I think her home is a dream world that very few people are able to live in. Bravo to someone that had choices, and went with what made a real home for herself.

i didn't realize poison ivy is such a warm and charming person in real life.

Me 9 minutes in: Dang, this thing is 30 minutes?? I thought we were just checking out her apartment. Also Me: keeps watching... lol

I have been watching Plant One On Me for many years. An inspiration! I am growing more plants inside and loving having them. During the Stay-In-Place order I brought my office plants home to create an oasis that I have worked in. This has made a huge difference to my psyche during the isolation. Tremendously grateful to Summer for her work.

Summer Rayne is the Goddess of nature. Bless her soul everyday for being such a beautiful inspiration to the rest of us.

Needless to say, I love all her plants, but that lime green paint color in her kitchen is one of the best features, that old sink is fabulous and those plants are amazing. I love the way she sits on that cute chair and looks out the window while drinking her tea, looking at those amazing little birds doing what they do. I hope she never ever moves out of her apt. It's such a wonderland of plant beauty along with all the colors of her things she's got in there.

I’ve been watching Summer for years “Plant one on me” channel she always has such excellent, informative content.

When I first saw the apt. in the video I thought “well, a little nuts” but after watching the whole thing I’m thinking “focused, obsessive, but not nuts.” She’s so smart, really interesting to hear, the lengthy just video flew by. I had so many questions at the end about practicalities like watering without damaging walls/floors/furnishings, how the landlord felt about the bugs and of course the time it took to take care of them all. My own esthetic is 180 degrees different from her’s, but I enjoyed spending time with this intelligent young woman. Also, I now feel a wee bit better about my own collections...

more people like her and the world would be a better place

She has the healthiest addiction I’ve ever seen. What a lovely and sweet woman. Gonna subscribe to her channel now. Thank you for this sweet and inspiring video ❤️

I've been following her on KZfaq for years and she's really taught me how to become better to the planet through plant care. I try to upcycle as many fast-moving consumer goods packaging products to reuse for propagating or composting. Everything truly is connected, people and the biosphere, and once your eyes have been opened, there's no going back.

My husband and daughter began planting, Milk Weed plants in our backyard and now it’s a Monarch Paradise. It wasn’t automatic though, my daughter would manually kill bugs that wanted to either eat the newly eggs or eat the leaves, this Spring we’re struggling with flies that are parasites to the caterpillars. But we’re still working at keeping the whole process going. Thank you for your gentle touch, you have what nature needs and for your hard work. Bravo for your beautiful and gentle strength to keep your dreams going.

She’s meticulous about selecting and caring for her plants. She has an extensive knowledge and passion. Thank Goddess for that!

Wow! I've seen a feature on her before but it didn't do it justice in showing how many plants she really had! It's like living in a forest. She seems at peace in her home.

As an apartment dweller who discovered my plant mama soul during this pandemic, Summer is so inspiring! Thank you for this beautiful film...

RESPECT FOR THIS WOMAN! SHE HAS SUCH LOVE FOR PLANTS AND ANIMALS. LOVE THE CHICKEN!

It's amazing to find someone that lives so close to me be so earthy. I live in the projects in Bushwick and to find greenery is tough. I usually walk to McCarren Park just to ground myself. It brought tears to my eyes to find out someone like you lives in an area I visit often and into fashion too...omg. Thank you for sharing, you have given me hope that I can come across people like you right where I live. 😊

I adore this woman! Her videos was one of my sparks to start my own houseplant journey 💚🌿

wow...amazing soul of nature...bugs, plants, birds and chicken...her beauty beyond skin...her passion turns into her lifestyle...so organic...she is a natural from her dna...thank you!! (really wonder how you find all amazing video subjects...you contact them or vs...!!!) i am a city girl, afraid of bugs and dust and got no green thumb...but will follow her channel to learn and open up all possibilities that nature can offer...thanks you again !!!

I have a plant addiction and I often gift plants to others so they are not too critical. Its hard to decorate with plants because wherever you put them there must be light. Her videos are very informative and relaxing.

You should move to Brazil and replant the amazon forest.

she literally is MISS EARTH.

The audio engineering when splicing the other videos into this piece was incredible. There was no difference in the level or quality of the audio. Ms. Oakes is extremely knowledgeable about plants and her apartment gardens are spectacular, but her life seems to be very solitary. It's not for me but more power to her. I hopes she gets a new chicken to have as a pet.

I am in awe, and, an indigo dyer. Love that dress. Smart, ethical and green.

What a lovely, remarkable woman! She brings the country into the city..

A really interesting woman. Really big space for New York. Some really beautiful plants but she lost me at those creepy crawlers. Very interesting getting to meet her so thank you for this video.

This is VERY impressive, I must say! I wish I had a situation where I could do this kind of thing. I tried growing plants on my patio , but ran into so much opposition from the management and the yuppies in the complex that I finally gave up. The yuppies were all control freaks, formerly from gated communities and homeowners' associations, and couldn't live without trying to control others. The patio growers in my building were originally six, then four, then two, then one, then none. It's sad, because the place is such a yuppie wasteland. All the shrubbery and most of the trees have been cut out. There isn't a blade of grass that would DARE be out of place. Control freaks are such pathetic creatures--no matter what they're trying to control others about.

She is a real plant parent, she loves all her children😊 Love u summer, God bless

I could almost feel her passion for nature...Summer has such a beautiful soul

"I've seen a lot of chicken poop in my life, and it doesn't phase me that much" ATTA GIRL !!!

🌳♻️🍃🎋👠🦗💦🏙BEPL with a hen and 10 green thumbs. Beautiful, eccentric plant lady with a hen and 10 green thumbs. 😍 Her Home is a GREENhouse! Loved the plant with metallic leaves! 🕷🦋🐞🐜☀️🐛🌿🌵🌱🍀🌴🌳🍃🎋🍁🌎🌆🌾🎍🐲💦🕊🦗🦟

outstanding level of knowledge and really smart woman, great video

Awesome, it is really a pleasure seeing the plant life in a concrete jungle tucked away and being cared for between ,on and off the walls that wall us from the nature outside. It is this intentional space creation and utilisation to grow plants in a creative and freestyle way that I admire. The additional information about the plants are a huge help too.

I really like seeing other people enjoying having plants and caring for them as much as I do :) makes me feel less lonely

This is like the awesome crossover, we've all been waiting for!

Ngl I find the amount of plants in this apartment to be cluttered and overwhelming, but I respect her knowledge and ability to nurture her plants!

My favorite KZfaqrs just collided and I couldn't be happier!!! Love you all!

that light coming into the kitchen from the window on the left and the shadows on and from those plants named something like heavenly enlightened dreamspace to those who see..

Kristen and Summer together, my two favorite youtubers! I love that!

3:28 that ejecting pillow is truly a must-have

Thank you for finding such interesting people and sharing them with us. Hope you and your family are well.

You are SUCH an inspiration!!! God bless you ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

I follow you both and I totally thought I was watching a Summer Rayne's video at first. I was so confused hahah

Yes!!! Im so glad for this home tour. Love Summer Rayne & this channel so much.

To begin I live in the country so growing and having my garden is a must I love every aspect of it..you have a wonderful outlook on the essence of it all..stay connected to your true self..your garden apartment is absolutely beautiful and tranquil...I love every inch...p.s. i am a tea drinker well..HAVE A BRIGHT DAY.....

I'm inspired by the upcycling! I love you've done with the place! It reminds me of an apartment I visited in NorthHampton MA a few years ago. The occupant had been homeless & had gotten a small section 8 apartment which he filled with upcycled junk he'd turned into sort of sculptures with plants growing all over them. He spent a lot of time collecting food from various restaurants & distributing them to people.

I LOVE Summer and her plant videos!! I could watch her all day, her voice is soothing and her place is GORGEOUS!!💖🥰

She is in her bliss! Many blessings to you 🙏🏼❤️👏☝️

I laughed when she said this is one of my favorites. Really? Looks like a whole apartment of favorites.

started watching Summer Rayne during lockdown and have learned so much. its amazing how she created a beautiful down to earth cozy home in NYC.

What a kind person! She gives me hope for the future. I cried a bit about her loss when Kippy died. I,too, had chickens when I was growing up and I don’t think people realize how wonderful they are. All the luck for your future endeavors, dear girl!

What a wonderful person - looks like name determined destiny

I love Summer and follow her channel. She has alot of great content. I didn't know about her history, so that was interesting. Thank you! She has great values. Love how she reminds us of how evil it is to destroy the planet.

I have watched this and come back to it for ideas no less than 20x! I'll stumble on an old whatever and know she has used something similar for a useful way to display her beautiful plants. Repurposing=Replenishing 💚🌱

I love her channel and she is my favorite resource for growing indoor plants. This was such a great documentary! Thank you!

I absolutely love this apartment, her style, and all of her gorgeous plants. I will be following her on KZfaq and Instagram. Thank you Kirsten, this was so beautifully done!

Thank you for sharing this fascinating person. Very interesting.

Very soothing

EMBRACES TRUE ORGANIC LIFE … I’M HERE FOR IT ALL !!! 🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱

Kirsten, thanks for bringing us such unexpected and engaging content. This was a nice surprise!

The fact that this appartement cost 4k+ per month is insane

I LOVE what she's done in her apartment. It's because of her that I've started turning my living space into a total green living space. This woman is amazing.

This video soooooo much makes me miss an apartment I had in Vancouver, BC. I was on my way to this kind of setup with plants as well as aquariums in the living room. The living room was a corner of the 2 storey building, my apartment was on the South East corner so I had sun most of the day coming in the windows which were south and east facing. I found Cherry Tree branches that had been trimmed off of a tree and suspended them off of the ceiling in a way that they looked like they had grown and had vining plants creeping across them and were very effectively were my living room curtains. I was able to see out but no one could see in, they could just see my 'strange green curtains', as one person commented once. I had a rebuilt, for indoor use, a wooden plant box under the east facing window with tropical ground plants and small trees growing in it, and the south window/wall had a number of glazed clay pots with plants of all kinds growing in them. there were 6 aquariums, the smallest being 60 Gallons and the biggest 280 Gallons with tropical fish of many species. I had a virtual rain forest in my living room and dining room which were connected. My own little sanctuary! I plan to do the same thing again in the future when I have my own home and won't have to move again. Hopefully on a homestead of our own, and then gardening will be a key part of homelife. Thanks Kirsten for bringing back such great memories, Peace, Happiness, Love and Laughter, Keep Safe All, -Matt

How it's possible to keep all your plants so clean of dust ? Amazing ! 👌

Love the inspiration :) Thank you 🙏 ☺️

What a beautiful life you created for yourself. I'm sure you're an inspiration to many. Stay the course 💗🌷

Her fire escape garden reminds me how I once had a fire escape garden in San Francisco growing strawberries and passion fruit 🍓

Oh Wow! I love your home! I know that you have the freshest air in the entire city. I love the country, in a city especially New York City I would be terrified. Love Love and so inspirational! Love your chicken.

Some sort of madness, but a very nice one!

Thank you for being so open. I believe you have a beautiful soul.

Oh what a nice portrait of her! She is honestly an inspiration!

Very informative, as always...

Your just amazing and I so hope you know it...such a beautiful caring heart! ❤️🥰

she seems so calm, i love her energy

Two of my favorite youtubers in one place at the same time. Wow! Made my Sunday morning! Thanks Kirsten and Summer!!

You have the most interesting apartment I have ever seen. Beatifull video.I love nature too. The hen is very cute.

Reminds me of movie Green Card. Enjoyed this. I put all plants out in summer. Probably need a few indoor permanent residents!🤔

Plants are the best art to add to your home. Just think how clean her air is. Just beauty everywhere. Excellent find!

I love your plants story. Last year during Covid I begun to grow carrots, peppers, tomatoes, and áloe in my tiny kitchen, I ended-up having so much flies in there and all over my apartment. The rewardingly parts was that I enjoyed the fruits of my tiny labor. However, I took the rest of all those plants to the front of the exterior temporary garden. Last week, I obtain your book and I’m slowly learning to talk plants jargon. It’s making me feel so good emotionally because I was raised in a house with a very large backyard with multiple plants and animal until I was ten year olds. But, I’ve been living in NYC practically all my life and watching your channel has inspired me to be plants parent for the rest of my life and to continue to be proactive. By the way, your apartment is like a beautiful jungle where I would feel very, very confortable. ( please note that it’s not envíe but admiration that I have for you.) I’m unable to live in a house but I live in my NYC apartment which is my home. Your space is calming! God bless you and thank you Ms. Oakes.🙏

This girl needs to own a plant nursery and pass on her love for plants and sustainability😌

Aw both of you inspire me so much on taking care of my living. Im so happy that my two favorites finally meet! 🤩💜

I love that she has nurtured and lived with so many plants but personally, I won't be able to deal with all the bugs and creepy crawlies. I've got 3 big (mid-sized) plants in my apartment and I have more than enough trouble dealing with bugs. Kudos to her though.

Thank you for this beautiful snapshot of Summer Rayne, her lifestyle, and her intentions. I had seen a video about her apartment before that didn't really go into the sustainable lifestyle that she encourages or the fact that she's really a scientist! So this was lovely to watch and learn more.

Beautiful ❤️

Wow, you have taken indoor plants to the max. I have never seen so many plants in an apartment. Caring for these must take some time. Bet the air in there is like a hyperbaric chamber, very healing. Except for the chicken.

This is so amazing! Omg. I love everything in this video. Your plants, chicken, hemeck, your life, your career choices, your snippets of your youtube channel. Thanks for making my day so green.

Her apartment is a dream. It looks so whimsical.

There is an attractiveness to her space. I was wondering if the same type of planting style could be done with edible plants. She answered that when she said that food plants brought her so many unexpected insect pests. I can see how that space could be a very restful place though. Thanks for posting this.

YOU INSPIRE ME. I AM MOVING INTO A 3 BEDROOM 3 STORY CONDOMINIUM IN DOWNTOWN BANGKOK THAILAND AND I WILL HAVE SO MUCH ROOM I COULD PROBABLY GROW MY OWN RAIN FOREST. WHEN I SAW YOU HAD A PLATYCERIUM (STAGHORN FERN) I KNEW YOU HAD TO BE A GOOD PERSON. LOL I HAVE A DEGREE IN AGRICULTURAL ENGINEERING BUT HAVE NEVER PUT IT TO GOOD USE SO THIS MAY BE THE TIME TO START. MY CONDO IS ABOUT AS MUCH AS YOURS IS ON EACH FLOOR SO IT WILL TAKE ME A WHILE TO CATCH UP WITH YOU. I WILL SEND YOU PICTURES AS IT PROGRESSES.

Oh my goodness! Her spirit and aura just GLOW! I absolutely love that she got into modeling to spread awareness about sustainability! I love a smart gorgeous woman!!!! Yessssss 🙌🙌🙌

Amazing! I always have problems growing plants in the kitchen. With chinese cooking the heat always kill the surrounding plants. Also hanging plants from ceiling proved to be a challenge for me for watering, it also wet the floor. It must be real hard work for her, a full time job to maintain her indoor garden.👍
