My thoughts:

This is a beautiful hardcover book that would make a wonderful addition to your gardening library or as a gift for a friend along with a plant. There are chapters on planting, watering and fertilizing; lighting; environment, grooming, and propagation; problem-solving and specialties. Then, there are plant profiles for individual plants so you can see the specifics for the plants you have or may want to add to your collection. I absolutely love the gorgeous color photographs in this book. It’s so easy for me to identify my houseplants and figure out what I need to do to care for them properly. This is a beautiful book that you’ll want to refer to over and over again.

Once you have a few houseplants, you’ll want to get a macrame plant hanger to show them all off. Here are 20 DIY Macrame Plant Hanger Patterns to start with.
