Beginners Guide to Growing House Plants

Format: Kindle

This is a kindle book I published myself to try and encourage people new or lacking experience of growing indoors to choose house plants based on growing conditions of their homes, and not just buying a plant based on attraction primarily. There are suggestions for plants that are easy to grow for the beginner and information about the basics of caring within the book.

Complete Houseplant Survival Manual

Format: Kindle – Paperback

The complete houseplant survival guide provides detailed information about various types of plants and certain species. Barbara has a nice gentle tone to her writing which seems to go well for a house plant growers book. It’s one of the most expensive books I have bought, however, I did learn to look at caring requirements for certain species in another way and found it a useful manual.

Indoor Kitchen Gardening

Format: Kindle – Paperback

The indoor kitchen gardening book is the best I have reviewed in terms of growing what you can eat within your kitchen and home. As soon as I began reading I sensed the authors (Elizabeth Millard) passion for growing and cooking healthily which plugged me in to wanting to read more. Some books will cover herbs while others will cover veg to be grown indoors but this covers both subjects.
