Plant Diaries | wholesome plant swap, apartment updates, plant care

[@apple.cheeks]

Such a wholesome vlog! I love your apartment too :')

[@annawhitley176]

you should name the mantis “viridian”!! it’s a pretty kind of green :)

[@benjiplant]

aw that’s so cute, idk if u played pokémon but there’s a city called Viridian City in an old pokémon game! my mantis is pokémon like so i really like the name

[@stantalentstanskz3662]

11:59 preach chris. if your man doesn’t treat u like how benji does idk anymore lol i love u guys so much. i love this type of wholesome vlogs

[@joseortuzar4971]

This what gen z aspirational content looks like love it and the artistry that is put into every space and items

[@awooshio]

awww I loved how wholesome and 'real' the vlog felt (stressing out over the plant swap, getting ~aesthetic~ grow lights, not having a picture perfect bed 24/7, etc)! and the apartment looks so much more cute now with more plants and decor!! also, I think some cool names for the mantis would be *fuzz, pickle, snyder, jade, mint, or emerald* ✨

[@benjiplant]

aw thank you, i'm glad you liked it! tbh i've never been one to make my bed haha. i'm in and out of it throughout the day so there i've never found much of a need too. Plus I think messy beds feel more cozy and inviting. also, super cute names!

[@grahammitchell9328]

This makes me want to go to a plant swap. What a great community. I love your aesthetic and the plants in your apartment. Your videos are definitely my go to feel good space.

[@sedumzz3289]

Such beautiful plants 🌱 The patio plants look so healthy Please be careful with the ficus vine outside , once it grows it sometimes clings to the wall

[@14.ghoullz]

I want that I think gardens and homes are so much more beautiful when plants grow like crazy

[@qingyanghu5549]

love the vlog length. please post more longer vlogs!!

[@benjiplant]

thank u! for some reason i always feel like my videos need to be under 10 minutes, but as a viewer i often prefer longer videos. so i’ve been trying to not cut down my videos as much

[@Girl95szia]

You are such a lovable soul! Wish you the best in life!

[@thanksxu]

thanks for having us over!! what a sweet time c:

[@ImAlwaysSirius]

The mantis should be named mimic! He/She perfectly blend into the background and match the leaves super well!

[@benjiplant]

ohhh that’s so cute. sometimes i think they escape but they’re right in front of me lol

[@calypsyph5205]

I went to a beautiful indoor garden last weekend! It was so much fun to recognize some of the plants you've mentioned in your videos and to learn about new ones! The plant trade looks so relaxing, I'm glad everyone had a good time :)

[@HelierCube]

It’s great to see you socializing more, I know you can find it hard, like me, but pushing yourself, can definitely show the benefits after, through the joy & happiness being around others can bring :)

[@clintbarnett9684]

Why did I tear up when he feed the mantis the mosquito…. Lol…. So wholesome

[@Ddalgiichigo]

You are so sweet and wholesome with your snacks and your posters giving away plants and saving a mantis 🥺 this is so wholesome 🥺

[@marie_344]

I love to see more of these moments where people gathering to share what makes them happy. So positive in the most natural way. And your voice and manner of speaking is so soothing and gentle that it reminds me of the sensation of the warmth hitting my closed eyes in the morning

[@Levi2303]

This vlog makes me happy, everything looks so lovely! And I like 'prayer' as name for your new pet :)

[@Apollenia]

Discovered your channel today and .... oh my. I was on such a low point with my plants but your calm videos gave me so much peace and motivation to keep on going.

[@maylani3697]

I want my plants to be like yours when they grow up. 🥰 You have a natural gift of caring for plants and a true sense of peace that comes with it. I can see it in your plants. I’m glad that you are sharing your gifts with all of us. Your plants (and Chris) are all thriving with the love that you give them. 🌸

You are the sweetest thing, saving that praying mantis! I think some good names could be Phoenix or Tripod 🤣

[@JamCanGurl]

Loving the vlogs Benji. And you are right that mantis is very cute. I hope they are on the mend.

[@benjiplant]

its doing well! way more active and eating readily

[@sghinshaw]

I’m so obsessed with your apartment and all your videos are just so amazing and perfect and literally the most calming videos on the internet

[@anahidedios5501]

You’re so cute and humble I love your calm, friendly vibe :) I’m happy you had a great time

[@mautillmon]

Cool! Make a video telling us about the name of your mantis, what it eats and if you plan to have another one.

[@angebo5951]

Oh my gosh, the mantis hiding behind the little plant, peering up at you! So cute! Also, thank you for the Soltech info! Thinking about getting a couple, they are beautiful!

[@sharonbrown5238]

Happy thanksgiving and I wanted to tell you that I enjoyed the video but my favorite thing was you rescuing the praying mantis that shows you have a gentle sweet caring heart. That baby would have died without your help.

[@marsf4883]

Oh man mantis’s are super cool. I think it’s a male, because it’s green. I had a mantis visitor for awhile and named her Mandy. Sadly, she flew away after a week or so, but I pet her and she was super sweet! Plant swaps are super fun, you should def do more in the future. For sure a great way to meet planty friends!

[@MrTunebeast]

I like the video, your lifestyle and this lightness underlined with this simple music

[@swedishrainbow_garden7672]

Thank you for this calming video - just what I needed. Love your apartment and so cool with the plant swap.

[@AK-gy7sz]

You could name them Orchid like in Animal Crossing! Also, I was wondering, since you mentioned Chris was also an environment (?) major, does he also keep plants or are they all yours? (Also I keep editing lol cause I don't know what to say but- I genuinely stayed for the whole video it was very wholesome and entertaining :)

[@aungbhonemoadam]
