A gift from my mother-in-law as she knows I like plants. :)
The author's effort is appreciated and makes for a decent quick reference book for true beginners, especially those who have never bought or cared for a plant.
Downsides are that there's a bit of unnecessary repetition (I suppose for length), could use chapters on identifying and treating pests and disease, chapters with images helping to identify plants since many places sell plants without ID, and all the information is readily available online, but again, its brevity makes the book a fair choice for referencing details. Certainly suits its purpose as an introductory manual!

The Houseplants 101 Book is an informative introduction to indoor house plants. The author uses terms throughout the text like soil type, potting mix, heating/humidity levels for growing conditions, watering, light (levels), temperature (heating) considerations for different species. There are photographs featured of different plants along with explanations about their care needs. The whole purpose of this guide is to help get readers started on caring for their own jungle at home - which would mean they grow beautiful little pockets of life indoors getting some air circulating while avoiding cold drafts or direct sunlight! This book doesn't delve too deeply into any one topic but it does cover quite a lot - from choosing the best plants that suit your home to nurturing them and providing expert plant care. There are also a couple of pages at the back, one listing recommended houseplants for specific rooms and another which lists some tropical houseplants not found in many other books.

This is a really helpful guide for anyone who needs some advice on caring for their houseplants.
Houseplants 101 covers everything, from picking the right plants for your space and making them fit right in with decorative pots and hanging baskets to how, of course, keep them alive!
I also really appreciated that they included tips for what to do when you've made a mistake and killed your plant.
Houseplants 101 is definitely helpful, especially for people who are just beginning to take up the hobby or have little knowledge about it. There are so many interesting facts in here too.
Houseplants 101 is an excellent guide. It's very comprehensive, well-written, and easy to navigate. The images are lovely, and they help illustrate the author's points wonderfully well. For anyone looking for advice on caring for their houseplants, this would be a great guide to reference!

Did you know houseplants not only make your house look nicer in general, but also give it an air of sophistication? I know; all houseplants do this. But there are certain houseplants that do this even better than others, and houseplants 101 is here to show you which houseplants to get! It's important to remember that houseplants aren't just for looks; they also improve indoor air quality!
Everyone knows houseplants require sunlight, but houseplants 101 also teaches you about the other factors that affect houseplants: water, temperature, and soil. Sometimes houseplants need more of these factors than others! Maybe you give your houseplant too much water, or maybe it's not enough. Maybe your houseplant likes humidity, or maybe it doesn't! You'll know after reading houseplants 101.
I have received a paperback version as a present from my friend and I have just ordered the hardback copy as the cover is so beautiful I will have this as my new "coffee table book" on display near my beautiful houseplants.

Loved this, plane and simple. I have always struggled with houseplants and I stopped getting them as gifts because it was a joke amongst my friends that they would eventually die. Not anymore!!
This book was a present and a really good one too. Now my houseplants live!!!
