Something rather wonderful occurs when the last flaming autumn leaves fall and turn brown when November steals in with quiet tones, and snow flurries dance through gray days. The indoor garden comes into its own. Jean Hersey, 1965

{HISTORY}

Across 128 pages, The Woman's Day Book of House Plants covers 191 varieties of plants, herbs, and flowers ideally suited for indoor environments. Way beyond just factual information, author Jean Hersey also shares colorful notes about each plant highlighting their distinct appeal, unique characteristics, and individual personalities.

Beautifully illustrated with watercolor art by Harry Marinsky, this book not only acts as a helpful guide when it comes to house plant selection and care but it also acts like your personal style advisor when it comes to displaying your plants in your space. Whether you enjoy just a few pots of greenery here and there or are striving for an indoor garden display packed with a variety of plants, Jean helps you decide what to put where and how they work most beautifully together. 

We love this book especially too because it includes a section on kitchen gardening that goes beyond the typical herb garden to include sweet potatoes, beets, carrots, pineapples, lentils and citrus fruits. 

Jean was a 20th-century freelance writer and author of many engaging books and articles on gardening and domestic life. She had a long-time career dispensing horticultural advice and information to the midcentury readers of Woman's Day magazine and worked in collaboration with them on several garden-themed books including The Woman's Day Book of Wildflowers published in 1960.

Perfect little set! Get both
Size: Small, Color: Porpoise
Such a soft sweater! You have to get the matching set! The quality is amazing and the material is nice and thick for those chilly days! The set feels like a more expensive brand so you get a good deal! I washed it and it did not shrink and the color did not fade. I hung to dry and the fabric still looks perfect!

Impressive style and quality!
Size: Large, Color: Chocolate
I was impressed by this ribbed crewneck sweater's quality and style. It's soft, comfortable and flowy without being shapeless. I love the back slit which ads a little chic. I chose the chocolate color which is a rich, dark cocoa. The sweater is true to size. The sleeves are slightly bell shaped which ads elegance. I highly recommend pairing this sweater with the matching cropped pants. Together it creates a lounging set that's casual yet elegant and ideal for travel. Highly recommend both.

Cute and Cozy
Size: Medium, Color: Chocolate
Normally I am hesitant to buy clothes off Amazon but I kept getting ads for this. I took the chance and bought this + the pants. I live in Michigan where winters get bitter cold. These are actually very cute and cozy. I wear one layer of thermals over it and my puffer coat but even without it, it's still warm. The size is fine I would say you are ok sticking with your regular size or sizing down. It is thick and stretchy too. I got lots of compliments on the outfit.

Shades of Sweater & Pants are Off
Size: X-Large, Color: Zephyr Pink
The color of the sweater and pants are not the same shade. Also, they are far from “cozy” and not as snuggly as I had hoped for. However the quality of the construction and material appear good.

Very cute! High quality denim.
I'm just gonna be honest with you ladies. These look and fit best on someone with a flat stomach, or more defined waist. Otherwise it is going to be hard to find a balance of how they slouch on the waist and the right amount of baggy. I'm 5'2, 150lbs, and the 27 fits me perfect and falls about 1 1/2 inch below my belly button. The length was perfect either straight with my Converse, or cuffed with my sandals.
