Plantopedia

Nothing enhances our connection to nature and promotes a sense of well-being like houseplants. Whether you are just getting started or consider yourself a seasoned plant parent, Plantopedia has all the information you need to start your own in-home garden. Over one hundred and thirty plant species are detailed in this compendium, which is the third book on plants authored by Lauren Camlieri and Sophia Kaplan of Sydney, Australia’s Leaf Supply. Leaf Supply’s indoor plant delivery service and hip eye for design and presentation comes through with portrait-style plant photography by Jacqui Turk and illustrated chapter headers by botanically-inspired textile designer Edith Rewa. In addition to the stunning visuals, each plant’s listing provides a smartly-designed sidebar of quick care points at your fingertips, along with in-depth looks at caretaking, classification and cultivation. There’s even a glossary of horticultural terminology and a visual plant index sorted by care difficulty level, which makes this book a wonderful at-hand reference. A built-in grosgrain ribbon bookmark will keep your place anytime you return to the breadth of houseplant knowledge in Plantopedia.
