Journalist and professional landscape designer Victoria Bazoeva wrote this book for those who love flowers - and it doesn’t matter whether you understand them. Here you will find 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 orchids help Charles Darwin and do they need transparent pots? Where did lemons come from on the Oka River and how to grow tangerines in an apartment? Why will there soon be no palm trees left in California and can they survive on black soil? Who invented guerrilla gardening and why plant a lawn of honey plants 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 dirty.
