That's beautiful. Too bad California is doing the opposite and encouraging so many people to tear out or neglect their lawns. I used to admire the beautiful landscapes in Ridgecrest when I first moved here. Now I drive down Ridgecrest Boulevard and feel like I am in some foreign third world country. Plants do more than clean the air. They make people feel happy and alive.
Make Trona great again!

I visited a friend last week and she had so many plants that it was like a jungle in her house. She obviously put a lot of work into her indoor jungle and it was really nice, but a bit much for me. Nice place to visit and you know the rest!

NASA recommends having these plants in your house to purify the air and other amazing reasons!!!
This video makes it sound like these plants can work miracles. They probably help, but I think this video exaggerates a bit.
