How much light does your plant need, and is it in the right spot? What do 'partial shade' or 'indirect light' actually mean? What can you do to bring that jungle feeling into your home?
This second book by Mama Botanica (Iris van Vliet) is a full-colour hardcover houseplant book with everything you need to know about the light incidence in your home. You'll learn to analyze the light in your home to better understand your houseplants and their light requirements. From now on, you'll know exactly which plant will thrive in which spot in your home.
Iris's – Mama Botanica – home is a true urban jungle with over 150 houseplants that she lovingly cares for. As inspiration for your own urban jungle, her new book includes not only information on light incidence but also a 'house plant tour' of the plants in her home, with background stories and care tips. Don't expect only success stories. She also shares her failures with you – not everything has to go well, and that's perfectly okay.
