Houseplants have been through a rough patch. The seventies were characterized by hanging lilies from macramé, the eighties by monsteras against ash furniture. It's time for a radical change. In this book, Andy Sturgeon explains why houseplants are good for our environment and our souls. He steers us toward dignified and tasteful succulents, away from fake poinsettias. There are plants that absorb cigarette smoke from living spaces and remove toxins from bedrooms. If your hobby is cooking, you'll get instructions on how to grow the necessary herbs on your kitchen windowsill.
"Potted: The Style Bible for Houseplants" is not only a care manual, but also teaches you how to incorporate plants into your daily life and interior design. The author has selected over 160 species for the book and explains how to keep them happy with minimal effort. For those who love plants but don't know how to keep them alive, we recommend practically indestructible plants, such as dragon trees, while experienced indoor plant fans are offered more demanding species. In addition to common plants, attention is also drawn to several unusual ones.
Here you will find all the practical information about watering, fertilizing and planting, as well as organic care measures
