The houseplant trend keeps growing

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

In an increasingly hectic world, Plantfulness is a guide to help you reconnect with nature while reaching for a peaceful and mindful life.

Finding the perfect houseplant for you can be daunting, particularly for those who feel like they have a black touch rather than a green thumb. But Plantfulness guides you through 50 houseplants which can give back to you in a symbiotic relationship, allowing you both to thrive.

Featuring the practical benefits, from cleaner air and beautiful scents, to the emotional ones, like creative inspiration and a daily sense of accomplishment for caring for them, Plantfulness is the perfect choice for anyone wishing to improve their wellbeing and enjoy nature from the comfort of their home.

An internationally respected expert on mindfulness and houseplant enthusiast, Dr Jonathan Kaplan works as a clinical psychologist in New York City. He lives with his wife, two kids, two cats, and asparagus fern Rhonda.
