Since the beginning of time, plants have moved around the world. Call them what you choose—flowerpots, plant pots, containers, or tubs—pots brought plants from all over the world to our own little spot of earth. The pots we find in our gardens today are the result of the evolution of available materials for making pots, the development of plant science, and even fashion.

Potting Up Plants is an illustrated look into the rich history and various styles of flower pots, as well as the universal garden wisdom provided by these vessels. Beautiful images from gardens of the world will be presented by gardener and blogger Linda Larson. Linda has traveled to over 900 gardens in 32 countries and all 50 United States. She is always trying to find room for just one more flowerpot in her home garden.
