Loving my kitchen's plant lighting!

Getting a cup of coffee while I check on some props this morning! I’m loving the fluorescent lighting in my new kitchen. I thought it would annoy me, because the fixture is not my aesthetic, but my low-light plants love it! That means I can prop a few cuttings next to my coffee maker 🥰

That’s so cool! Do tell about the lights 😎
@RealSimpleMama I’m afraid I don’t know too much about them; the lights were installed when I moved in, but the bulbs are really bright and give even lighting throughout the kitchen. I only discovered that the plants were happy there by accident, because they landed there during the move but started growing really well! Even ones that surprised me a bit, like a mini monstera, were putting out new leaves. Here’s a photo of the fixture, in case it helps! I’m assuming it’s just standard fluorescent tube lights in there.
@ESylvanus oh that’s great! How convenient 🤣
omg what plant is that next to your pothos?
@fabiana That’s a Dracaena compacta ‘Janet Craig’! I’m propping that little tip to put in my crested gecko’s terrarium. This is what they look like when they get a bit older:
@ESylvanus ohh ok! it looks so cute in the little jar lol
