There are lots of really great tips in this book.
The author is adamant there are ‘No black thumbs’, but I came away with the impression that to get it right will require a dedicated focus and lots of energy. It is easy to understand and very logical and detailed explanations, making it easy to understand the impact of light conditions, fertiliser, plant type etc. I'm sure it will help many people on their journey to thriving house plants.
It certainly helped me understand why my focus is rather my 2000 sqm of garden (based in the Southern Hemisphere.) In this environment, many of the plants described as ideal house plants thrive in my garden!
With thanks to #NetGalley, Houghton Mifflen Harcourts and the aorta's uthor for my free advanced reader copy to review in exchange for an honest opinion.
