If you follow traditional houseplant advice, you’ll be disappointed because your plant is no longer “perfect.” Darryl’s approach breaks down the barriers to true, long-lasting enjoyment of houseplants. When you understand how plants work, you can gain a deeper appreciation for their character and more acceptance of how they’ll grow. It’s a healthy dose of practical science and realistic expectations!

Darryl Cheng is the author of The New Plant Parent and The New Plant Collector and creator of House Plant Journal. Darryl’s passion for plants and engineering approach to plant care have turned him into one of the most trusted houseplant resources on the internet. What was initially a hobby Tumblr page has turned into an Instagram account with more than 500,000 followers, a go-to website for anything houseplant related, two houseplant books, and plant time-lapse videos that have gone viral around the world.
