Plantopedia: The Definitive Guide to Houseplants

Awesome book for houseplant lovers! Bought this book for my girlfriend who has been getting into houseplants recently... she LOVED it! It has amazing photos and information throughout the entire encyclopedia! Great gift for any plant lover, I can imagine it will look great on her coffee table and will start many conversations. You really can't beat the price!

This coffee table book about plants is an absolute treasure! Not only is it visually stunning with its vibrant photography and beautiful layouts, but it’s also packed with informative content that makes it a joy to read. Each page invites you into the lush world of plants, showcasing everything from common houseplants to exotic species. The descriptions are rich and engaging, offering fascinating facts and care tips that both novice and experienced plant enthusiasts will appreciate. What I love most is how it strikes the perfect balance between aesthetics and education. It's the kind of book you can leave out for guests to browse through, and it never fails to spark conversations about house plants and plant care. If you’re looking to deepen your appreciation for nature and bring a touch of greenery into your home decor, this book is a must-have. Five stars for its beauty and informative content—it's a true celebration of the plant kingdom.

I became obsessed with houseplants later in life as an adult. This book is one of many that I bought to learn about my new hobby. The pictures are high quality and the text is descriptive. Sure, I could just use Google and search plants online but there’s something nostalgic about having an encyclopedia at your fingertips. A detailed glossary has helped me learn the lingo. A visual index that can be used to identify plants you own, or decide which ones you want to buy next! And an easy to use index to find exactly what you’re looking for. Built in bookmarks. This book is the perfect addition to any plant lovers bookshelf!

I recently bought Plantopedia and have not been able to put it down. It's a beautiful book full of accessible information. I'm already feeling more empowered as a budding plant hobbyist. Thank you, Leaf Supply, for putting your creativity and knowledge out into the world, I'm certainly better for it.

My wife is a houseplant assassin. You think she's there to take care of them, nurture them, provide them needed sustenance in exchange for their lush greenery. She seems like she really cares. She checks the soil regularly, waters the plants judiciously, and prunes them to make room for new growth. She cares. Really. And them BAM, plant drops dead without warning. My wife feigns innocence, but we all know what happened here. Death by too much care. Anywho, I got her this book and fewer plants are dropping dead. COINCIDENCE? I think not. Beautiful book. Very informative.

I have a background in botany, and every so often go on a binge and get some more house plants, then look around for something to give me more information on how to care for them. This book got nice reviews so I ordered it. The good news: beautiful illustrations and good information on individual plant care. The bad news: not very comprehensive. It's about 400 pages, and maybe 360 are devoted to one plant per two pages -- so say 180 plants. When I started looking up individual plants, I didn't find most I was looking for. (Admittedly I was often looking for something less common than you expect at the average plant shop -- but nothing really rare.). So, it doesn't provide nearly the coverage I'd hoped for. Partly, perhaps because the authors are from Australia and focus on a somewhat different set of houseplants than one finds in the US. In any case, a beautiful book and probably helpful for a beginner, but not really the right book for someone more advanced wanting a really comprehensive coverage.

So happy with this purchase exactly what I was looking for!

One of the standout features of Plantopedia is its stunning visuals. The book is filled with vibrant, high-quality photographs that showcase the diversity and beauty of the featured plants. From tropical foliage to delicate flowers, each page is a visual treat. The book is well-organized, presenting information in a clear and concise manner. It covers a vast array of houseplants. Each plant is accompanied by detailed descriptions that encompass its characteristics, growth habits, ideal environments, and care requirements. The author's expertise shines through as they explain plant propagation techniques, pest management, and troubleshooting common issues. Whether you're a beginner looking to start your indoor garden or a seasoned plant enthusiast seeking to expand your collection, Plantopedia offers valuable insights for every stage of the journey.

Eines meiner Lieblings-Bücher für Hauspflanzen. Ich hab bewusst die Englische Ausgabe gekauft. Wunderschöne Bilder, viel Inspiration, auch als Coffee-Table-Book gut geeignet.

Libro ben fatto, ha delle belle foto e le piante sono ben trattate/spiegate

Un très beau livre très complet offert pour noël pour une personne qui adore les plantes, s'y connait déjà beaucoup et le souhaitait depuis longtemps !

Adoro este livro, é mesmo muito bom. Pena ter chegado ligeiramente amassado.

Good book for beginners. Gives right information without overwhelming you
