5.0 out of 5 stars What a great book!!!, October 9, 2007

By	Mandy Stanley (Marietta, Ga United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

What a wonderful organic gardening book for the indoors. My houseplants are thriving, and I love it! I was amazed at how well they have responded without the use of synthetic chemical fertilizers. This book is a must for all houseplant owners. The illustrations are lovely and the content very informative. I highly recommend it for all gardeners. From choosing plants, to watering, and dealing with diseases, this book has it all.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great reference I use over and over again, November 9, 2007

By	J. A. Schlueter (Southern California) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I keep going back to this book time and again as a reference for my many questions. It is challenging and informative, but is also written for those of us who have had less experience in organic gardening. This book makes a great gift. I have bought 6 to give as gifts and 1 for myself. What a delightful way to enjoy the art of indoor gardening.

I'm a professional gardener. Lawnman. I'm enjoying the book. For the beginning gardener this would be an excellent place to study indoor plants and the various needs of all plants.
