Botanical conspiracy. BAZOEVA V.V.

After the months of the Lockdown spent in four walls, many of us began to look for any available hobby and a way to brighten up a gray routine. And then everyone remembered the plants. Someone started the first ficus in his life, others purchased with phytolamps and arranged a pharmaceutical garden on the balcony. But what to do if you really want to green a home, but there is not enough knowledge - and pots turn into cemeteries? Journalist and professional landscape designer Victoria Bazeva wrote this book for those who love flowers - and it doesn’t matter if you are versed in them. Here you will find the fascinating stories of plants that have conquered millions of window sills, and practical tips that will help you grow even the most capricious flower. How did the orchids help Charles Darwin and do they need transparent pots? Where did the lemons come from on the Oka and how to grow mandarin in the apartment? Why in California there will not be palms soon and can they survive on black soil? Who invented partisan gardening and why break the lawn of medonos flowers at the entrance? “Botanical conspiracy” will prove to you that plants are simple and very interesting, the main thing is not to be afraid to get your hands.
