  There is a huge variety of houseplants available to the indoor gardener, but choosing plants that will flourish in a particular location, and at the same time provide the right decorative touch, is not always a straightforward task. This handbook seeks to reveal all the secrets of ensuring success with houseplants. Beginning with a broad look at all the different types of houseplant available - including their characteristics, care needs and best growing conditions - there then follows instruction, professional tips and step-by-step features for all the basics of houseplant care. The final chapter looks at the role of plants in the home, with ideas for table-top displays, pedestal designs, bottle gardens and terrariums.
