How to turn a loft apartment into a tropical sanctuary
In short: Discover how Craig Miller-Randle transformed his Richmond loft into a dense indoor jungle. This video explores the specific techniques used to cultivate rare tropical species in an urban environment.
Craig Miller-Randle uses decades of horticultural knowledge to manage a collection of rarities, including Philodendron ‘Glorious’, Pachypodium geayi, and Swiss Cheese Vine. His approach focuses on aesthetic integration, selecting plants with strong structural elements that complement the apartment's architecture.
Key techniques include utilizing stairwells for hanging foliage like Rhipsalis and using 'totems' to increase humidity. By replicating natural climbing conditions, Miller-Randle encourages larger leaf growth in indoor settings.
