Container Gardening

This volume provides the basics of container gardening, the practice of growing plants exclusively in containers instead of planting them in the ground. It contains information about growing and living with houseplants, and planting and maintaining outdoor container plants. General information about growing, propagating, and caring for your houseplants and container garden to achieve optimum results is included. The editor provides step-by-step illustrations and photographs that outline instructions to create many natural projects. Dozens of plants are photographed throughout the book, showing what they look like when grown in the right conditions. Many entries also include the botanical name, the common name, and various other information about the plants. The final sections of the book provide an encyclopedia of houseplants and container plants to help choose and identify them.
