Plant Parenting: Easy Ways to Make More Houseplants, Vegetables, and Flowers

by 

Leslie F. Halleck

Expected publication: June 11th 2019 by Timber Press

Various methods of propagation are discussed along with when each method would be preferred. Handy charts are included for determining which plants can be propagated in which ways, ideal temperatures for seed germination for various popular plants and common plant pests and diseases. I appreciated that the author includes not only products sold specifically for plants, but also includes many repurposed items that do the job just as well. Each propagation method is covered clearly along with illustrative photos. This would be an excellent resource for a gardener or houseplant enthusiast.

Thank you to Timber Press and NetGalley for the opportunity to read this book in exchange for my honest review.
