  A reference to help you select the best houseplants for you and your home as well as being a practical guide to caring for and displaying them to their best advantage. The book covers every aspect of houseplants - from what is available, where to shop for them and how to choose the best specimen, to caring for them through the winter and while you are away. There is advice on how to feed, water and doctor your plants including what tools you will need on hand plus practical projects ranging from innovative ideas on positioning to creative houseplant displays, such as an indoor topiary or a beautiful bottle garden. At the end of the book, there are techniques on how to take cuttings, dividing and layering, and a wealth of advice on display, with ideas on unusual containers and customised pots.
