Summary

Award-winning horticulturist  Tammy Huynh covers the essentials of indoor plant care in this stunning book featuring an abundance of colorful photos and illustrations.

Many plant parents are frustrated by conflicting advice online, or simply don't know why they keep ending up with plant casualties. With this book, you can finally discover what each plant needs to thrive, the common problems they face and their remedies.

The Plant Book cuts through the noise with clear information that will help you grow and nurture healthy, resilient indoor plants. Tammy has selected the 50 most-loved houseplants and for each profile she offers:

  • A detailed description
  • Icons to indicate ideal care conditions
  • A list of cultivars
  • A list of common problems for that specific plant with photos to help you visually recognise and diagnose plant issues

In addition, the "Houseplants 101" chapter covers general tips on lighting, potting mix, watering, fertilizer, humidity, pests and diseases, buying plants, hydroponics, and pots and planters. There's a heavy focus on troubleshooting with diagnostic flow charts, allowing you to identify and resolve plant problems, even for species not covered in the book.

The Plant Book will empower you to confidently spot and solve your plant problems, so we can all become super plant parents and avoid further plant casualties.
