I’m a newbie when it comes to indoor plants and I’m seeking some good books I can read to help me pick out new plants and learn new care techniques from. There are so many books on this topic, so I’d love to hear what y’all suggest before I make any decisions.
Websites are cool, but I need fewer excuses to look at screens, not more. :)
I had hoped some folks who are more into houseplants would comment; one gardening author I really respect is Alan Toogood, who’s written books like Indoor Gardens: Living with Plants, House Plants, and Care of House Plants in addition to many others. All of his books I’ve read have left me impressed, informed, and confident to practice the skills he’s covered.
