Houseplants: The Complete Guide to Choosing, Growing, and Caring for Indoor Plants

I bought this book along with a few others, and I wish now I had bought this one first as I would not have purchased the others. It's very thorough, well organized and has amazing photographs that not only help me to identify my plants, their issues and other varieties I may like, but the staging of the photos are so inspiring for home decor. It's hard cover, but light, and packed full of information. My only gripe is the catalog of plants at the beginning of each section has very tiny thumbnail photos, but all one has to do is keep flipping for the larger photos. This book is a good resource for beginners or even very green thumbs. I found the propagation section especially helpful. If you have a love of plants, add this book to your library.

I love this book. It is very comprehensive with a section on all of the usual how to's and information about all kinds of house plants. The back half of the book is pictures and profiles of 194 house plants. It is divided into 3 sections with easy, moderately, or challenging to grow. Most plants have complete page of full color photo and description and care. A few are half page shared with another plant. The only complaint I have is one of my pet peeves with books anyway, photos without heading, name or titles. About half dozen times, in the front section of care and how to, the are photos of plants that aren't named and they are not in the individual plant pages. There is one plant I really like and I have searched everywhere (and I am a good internet searcher) and I can't find this particular plant. Authors, don't put in illustrations or pictures without identifying the subject!

Enjoyed reading this book. As a serious plant parent and still learning about plants, the contents in this book provided more information, care guide and descriptions to assist me in helping my plants become healthier.

This book has good information and great illustration, just wish it had more plants with there being so many more verities out now.

Beautiful book, full of easy to understand information. Out of all of my house plant books, this is by far the best

I love everything about this book. Wonderful photos, perfect descriptions of each plant (the plant's general information, watering, lighting, propagation etc.), and the fact that it has a hardcover.This book even splits house plants into "ease of care" categories. Of course you can find almost any and all info on the internet for plants but I LOVE the look and info inside of this book. Makes a really nice coffee table book. I've used it several times to reference certain house plants that I own. It is definitely worth the money!

Good explanation

This is the best plant book.Pictures are awesome, care info well organized. Really glad I purchased it.
