[.uk] Indoor Gardens: Fresh ideas for growing beautiful plants ... (ISBN 0696212552)

Lots of ideas and basic houseplant info:
I have several books on houseplants, but this one is a little bit different. Other houseplant books are an "encyclopedia" of the different kinds of plants and also includes information on care, propagation, etc. This particular book doesn't go into detail on very many specific plants, so if that's what you are looking for, I would suggest "The House Plant Encyclopedia" by Jantra/Kruger or John Evans's "The Complete Book of Houseplants". However, this is one of my favorite houseplant books. Although it contains information on care and propagation, it contains lots of ideas for arranging plants and making small gardens. The gardens it covers include: Tabletop gardens Ivy Topiaries Orchids Holiday Plants Forcing bulbs Windowsill gardens Seasonal Gardens Plant Collections Exotic and Artful Tropicals Decorating with Plants Since the book is a "Better Homes and Gardens" publication, it also includes plenty of photos of rooms with plants and flowers. I thought I was running out of room for more houseplants, but some of the rooms they show have quite a number of plants and are truly "Indoor Gardens". I think those rooms are inspiring because plants can really bring a room to life and make it comfortable unlike anything else. If you want to add some indoor gardens to your house, I recommend this book. It will give you ideas other than just sticking your plant in a pot and sitting it in the window!
