He uses professional knowledge to tell us about flower cultivation techniques. The content is mainly composed of 5 chapters. The first chapter is the necessary knowledge for novices to grow flowers.

Watching the flowers bloom and fall in front of the court and the clouds rolling in the sky is a kind of pastoral life that contemporary people hope for. Flowers bring people not only an ornamental effect, but also a kind of spiritual comfort. When writing this book, the author fully considered the confusion of novices and some common problems in flower cultivation. Including what kind of plants should be planted in different areas of the home, some common knowledge about flowers and plants that novices must have, etc. What is more considerate is to link the planting of flowers and plants with the four seasons.

It is rich in content and beautifully illustrated, making it a rare flower and plant planting guide for novices.
To teach novices how to grow flowers, the basic knowledge is relatively comprehensive and simple. I can probably master it after reading it. This book is summarized first and then divided into sections. It first explains the necessary knowledge of flower cultivation, and then explains how to plant flowers suitable for the four seasons. Most of them are grown in pots, which is more suitable for families. However, there is a lot of content. It is more like an encyclopedia. It is a general teaching and is not particularly detailed. If you read it quickly, you will not be able to grasp it. You have to combine it with actual operations to slowly understand the content in the book.
I especially like the floral calendar design for each month in the book. I always didn't know how to take care of my flowers before, but now it's clear at a glance. There are also answers to various questions. For example, the gyokuro I raise is always watered improperly. After reading this book, I know what to do. I feel like I can also grow "other people's flowers and plants"! Recommended to all friends who want to grow flowers.
