The methods described in this book really work. I still have my begonia I planted about 8 years ago. I planted it according to Dr. Wolverton's instructions. The book's instructions are only a small portion; the rest of the book is convincing information about indoor pollutants, and more than half of the book discusses plants that beautify your home (or office) and help clean its air of pollutants. The illustrations are excellent!

Pros: Very detailed and informative as to how these plants help, and how well
Cons: I wish it were longer and talked about more plants!
This book should be in the science section at Barnes and Noble, not the garden section. I was curious as to the title of this book, "How to Grow Fresh Air: 50 Houseplants that Purify Your Home or Office," thinking it strange to have a plant book about air quality. I decided though to check it out and was amazed at the vast amount of information this book contains. Not only is the book beautifuly designed with full-color pictures adorning the pages for a wonderful aesthetic effect, but the book is more informative and useful that I could have ever imagined. Not only does the author describe in.
