Since the introduction of heat into homes, making it possible to keep potted plants alive, people have been obsessively collecting and caring for house plants. These now common additions to any well-designed space add vibrancy and colour while simultaneously instilling a sense of tranquillity. This new title in the Kew Pocketbooks series is a celebration of the integration of plants into our living spaces, showcased through 40 stunning paintings from the Kew archives. An introductory chapter by Kew expert Bryony Langley provides an overview of the plant group, and extended captions accompany each painting.
