How to Make a Plant Love You: Cultivate Green Space in Your Home and Heart by Summer Rayne Oakes

4.0

Wonderful research, well-written, heartfelt and informative. It bugged me how many blurbs from social media were there, easily half the book is quotes from other people I was not very interested in. She also uses the last sections of the book to plug her master gardening class, but that's the game I suppose. Otherwise, it's highly recommended by this intermediate gardener and environmental activist. I adore the thought Summer puts into how a plant thrives, what their needs are and how they communicate those needs; it's beautiful and shows her honest empathy which we all grow along with the plants we keep alive around us.
