The Potted Garden

A Container Gardener's Handbook

The Potted Garden went straight to the best seller list when it was published.

Welcome to the thriving world of potted plants, where valuable tips are shared on how to succeed with plants. If you haven’t chosen your favorite plants yet, this book shares tips and ideas to inspire and encourage experimentation. The Potted Garden caters to those residing in small apartments or houses with spacious gardens alike.

The Potted Garden teaches you how to make the most of your pots. How about sowing seeds that turn into beautiful summer flowers, cultivating sun-ripened tomatoes, trying the trendy plant popcorn grass, or creating your own herb garden? Here, everything needed for success has been gathered, providing step-by-step explanations and sharing inspiring images from the author’s small farm in Hadeland in Norway.

This book is useful and practical, with beautiful illustrations. It inspires and encourages plant lovers to grow beautiful indoor plants at home, helps them choose ideal plants for their own space, and instructs them on how to plant and care for plants in order to create a wonderful green oasis in their own homes. I am thrilled with the idea of a special lifestyle for modern (and peaceful) people which this book promotes, and the care for plants as a form of relaxation from everyday stress, especially in this difficult time of the pandemic.
