Review by Library Journal Review

Relying on these "survival tips," readers will ensure that their home (or office) plants live long, healthy lives. Peerless (contributor, Garden Design Journal; contributing editor, gardenersworld.com) begins with "The Basics," including "Buy It," "Water It," and "Plant Pests." Detailed spreads on popular and well-adapted indoor plants follow, with occasional lists ("Top 5 Plants for Your Bathroom"; "Top 5 Plants for Your Desk") featured throughout. VERDICT Boasting dynamic graphics, clear photos, and reassuring, concise text, this offering will attract most readers. Consider for all public libraries. © Copyright 2017.
