This has been a incredible reference for all my houseplants, including a few that I've owned for years without knowing what they were! The wire binding is a good touch, and the cross-referencing is well done. Quality pictures, clear directions for plant care. All around my favorite houseplant book.

I was looking for a book on houseplants that provided all the basic information: lighting needs, water needs, feeding needs, but ALSO, how to propagate each plant!! Great for an amateur houseplant hobbyist. Nice color photos.

Easy to read and understand. Good price. Not extensive--definitely for the beginner who just wants to keep a few house plants.
