As far as your basic guide to plant care goes, this is the stuff. I'm constantly thumbing through it when I need to figure out which plants would thrive best in a dark bedroom or a bright kitchen. Plus the photos are simply beautiful. Some of the highlights of the book include decorating with plants, choosing houseplants, growing herbs inside, picking the right containers, raising and grooming, propagating and understanding plant problems. This handy book also gives you step-by-step instructions on how to build your own knockdown growing stand. (...) Reviewer: Angel Lee from Cleveland, Oh This is an excellent book for learning to grow & care for houseplants. It is full-color and packed with photos. It is loaded with advice on basic care & propagation, as well as elimination of pests & diseases. I loved how it helped me choose a proper container for each plant & the appropriate room for its needs. I was also impressed that there were step-by-step instructions for installing supports for hanging plants & a growing stand. An indispensable plant glossary in the back lists the plants by family. A photo is included along with common name, scientific name, size, description & propagation methods. Light, soil, & temperature needs are also here. The differences between the plant families are explained as well & many of the plants that make them up are listed. It even gives you decorating hints. Before you buy any houseplants, you must read this book. Houseplants and Indoor Gardening (Black & Decker Outdoor Home Series) by Julie Bawden-Davis, John M. Rickard (Photographer), Julie B.
