Description


"Distills a lifetime of plant experience into easy-to-follow instruction, giving an amateur like me the confidence to green my home for health." --Paula Baker-LaPorte, coauthor of Prescriptions for a Healthy House

Some of the most polluted places on earth are where we spend 90% of our time: inside our homes. Science is continually uncovering more effective ways of improving the quality of our environment, and plants--specifically indoor trees and shrubs--are at the top of this list.

Growing trees and shrubs indoors might seem like a monumental challenge, but it's no different than growing any plants indoors. Written by master gardener DJ Herda, Growing Trees and Shrubs Indoors is a definitive guide on what makes these plants special and all the tips and tricks you need to help them survive and flourish in an indoor environment. It covers how they:

  • Rid your environment of airborne pollutants
  • Beautify your home
  • Help you to live a longer, healthier, happier life.

An explosive introduction into the wellness scene, Growing Trees and Shrubs Indoors is for those with a keen interest in gardening, health, and science, offering an entirely new way of promoting human wellness--by creating beautiful, enjoyable surroundings.

"A fascinating, encyclopedic compendium dealing with the nature and care of trees and shrubs." --Arnold M. Ludwig, author of King of the Mountain

"Covers everything from watering needs and light requirements to propagation to keeping costs down, all in an effort to help you create a verdant home that has the health benefits of being outside." --Deanna Duke, author of The Non-Toxic Avenger

"Clearly written and beautifully illustrated. It's a real eye-opener " --Phillip Adcock, author of Master Your Brain
