Houseplant Handbook

By matching awkward spaces in your home with environments in the natural world, this book shows you how to relocate plants to improve their growth and help them thrive. Focusing on working with the plants you already own, the book is divided into chapters detailing all possible conditions: Extreme Sun/Heat, Dry Air/Central Heating, Deep Shade, High Humidity, Draughty, Cold. There are informative plant profiles; easy-to-follow tips on feeding and watering, optimum conditions and prospective growth; and a troubleshooting chapter which deals with common problems and what to try when all hope is lost.
