Terrain's plant experts travel the world in search of the most unusual and interesting houseplants. In this inspiring and practical guide, they share their favourite specimens: exotic and eclectic ferns, like the skeleton fork, a primitive (and unfussy) predecessor to the family; new aroids to feed that monstera obsession; and adventurous trailing plants like dischidia, which is found cascading from tree branches in its native Thailand; plus succulents and cacti, indoor trees, the best low-care plants, and 'rule breakers' like bamboo muhly grass that can make an unexpected move indoors. Along the way, Terrain introduces their favourite independent growers - passionate plant lovers who are creating new hybrids and bringing back old-school specimens to the market. And readers learn Terrain's way of styling and overarching philosophy on care: the most important thing we can give our plants is our presence.
