β€˜Indoor Green is the modern-day Bible for plant lovers’ Domain

The art of decorative arrangement to add romance in any room with houseplants

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

For centuries, plants have transformed interiors. Today, house plants are once again experiencing a revival. Author Bree Claffey journeys into the interior worlds of fellow plant lovers to explore the enduring attraction of house plants. From the ever-reliable peace lily and beguiling fiddle leaf fig to the elusive Chinese money plant, Indoor Green makes it obvious that even the humblest greenery can transform a home.

House plants encompass the art of decorative arrangement and add romance to any room. Within the pages of Indoor Green, gorgeous photographs of interiors from across the globe, divided into chapters such as 'Plant Music', 'How to Grow Fresh Air', 'Plant Portraits', and more, make the magic easy to replicate in one's own home.

Interviews of indoor green enthusiasts appear alongside the images, as well as tips on caring for plants and an index of plant varieties. More than good-looking props, plants are living, growing, joyful things rooted in community and creativity, and are easy to introduce into any home and lifestyle.
