Do you get discouraged with so many gray, cold January days? Have you considered purchasing a houseplant to help you hold on until spring? Indoor plants vary in hardiness and level of maintenance, making it hard to choose which plant will grow successfully in your home.
At Cole Library we have purchased Houseplants for Beginners: A Practical Guide to Choosing, Growing, and Helping Your Plants Thrive by Rebecca De La Paz and Houseplant Warrior: 7 Keys to Unlocking the mysteries of Houseplant Care by Raffaele Di Lallo. These books will help you successfully purchase and maintain your houseplants. If you already have houseplants but want to take your knowledge and care to the next level, you will also benefit from the expertise these two authors share. The library also has a collection of books for succulent plant care if they are your house plant of choice.
Growing houseplants may help you grow in other ways. You may decide to learn to make a macramé hanger or take a pottery class to make your plants a new pot. Besides changing the indoor landscape plants also change our live for the better.
