Publisher NotesWith nearly 10 million copies in print, it's the world's best-selling book on house plants, and it's back again, better than ever, in a new edition with the latest tips for buying, potting, growing, displaying, treating, and breeding more than 300 varieties. No other volume gives you so much information and advice! Every plant appears in full-color close-up photos and detailed drawings, with lists of over one thousand types and sub-species, and so much more. In fact, there's so much here that first you'll want to stop by the special how-to sections. You learn the Ten Golden Rules for plant care see how to select the plants you want, and find suitable containers, from traditional pots and planters to hanging baskets, screens, terrariums, and plant windows. Be sure to take the room-by-room tour of your house. It shows you where to place eye-catching focal point plants and how to group smaller plants, from guest-welcoming living room and dining arrangements to cozy kitchen and hallway displays, to imaginative ways to transform the two least-used spaces for plants -- the bedroom and bathroom.

But you'll probably spend the most time browsing and studying the A-Z guide to plants, as you think about your favorite flowering plants, ferns, palms, cacti and succulents, bromeliads, orchids, herbs, fruits, vegetables, insectivores, climbers, trailers -- just about every place in your house will benefit from an idea from the House Plant Expert and David Hessayon, the world's best selling gardening author!
