Dust jacket complete, unclipped. Green cloth with bright gilt titling. No ownership inscription.257,viii, pages clean and tight. At last a really practical guide to the growing of indoor plants. No longer need we rely on green fingers, for MAKING THINGS GROW shows you exactly what to do, in both winter and summer, to obtain the best from your plants. Thalassa Cruso has been at pains to give her guide the down-to-earth approach which made her famous as the `plant lady' in the immensely popular American television programme MAKING THINGS GROW. Her highly personal and humorous guide starts with basic care: the watering problem, when and how to re-pot, soil, how to recognise a dormant rather than a dead plant, and even what questions to ask when you buy one. From the method of treating hanging plants with ice-cubes to the whole question of light and warmth (including a special section on growing them under artificial lights) the author provides direct solutions to countless gardening problems, as well as providing many ingenious ideas on display. In fact there is something for everyone: leafy plants, flowering plants, exotic plants, plants for the adventurous, herbs and even 'neglectable' plants for those who have no time. Illustrated with more than a hundred drawings by Crambs Miller, MAKING THINGS GROW is as pleasurable to read as it is practical to use. Size: 8vo.
