Hands up if you've killed a plant? Yep, me too. It's no secret that
we've all become plant obsessed, but do we really understand how to
look after them? I am not a Professor of Botany, but having run my
florist and plant shop, Grace & Thorn, since 2011 I've learnt a
few things along the way. HOW NOT TO KILL YOUR PLANTS is about
taking the hocus-pocus out of plants and flowers and enabling you
to understand a plant's needs in order to know where to place and
how to style them, but most importantly how to keep them alive. I
get asked every type of question you can imagine and I have written
this book to answer them. Watering can down, it's time to go back
to the roots. Keep it green. Nik x (AKA The Agony Plant)
An illustrated guide to the houseplants you need for clean and
fresh air when you're stuck at home How clean is the air you
breathe? Plants are the lungs of the earth: they produce the oxygen
that makes life possible, add precious moisture and filter toxins.
Houseplants can perform these essential functions in your home or
office with the same efficiency as a rainforest in our biosphere.
In this beautifully illustrated guide, noted scientist Dr Bill
Wolverton shows you how to grow 50 plants that filter the most
common pollutants, making it easy for you to purify the
environments that impact you the most.
Give your houseplant a bit of attitude with this heavyweight
ceramic planter by Brass Monkey, which features white glaze
and...well...some care instructions. Includes a drain plug &
drip tray (that also functions as a lid) for even the most
discerning of plant people. * Vintage apothecary-inspired design,

Drink' lettering. * Includes a drain plug & drip tray for those
high maintenance plants. * Measures 4.42" in diameter and 3.9"

just give up.
