Aquascaping by George Farmer
As Heard on The Daily Gardener Podcast:
This book came out in 2020, and the subtitle is A Step-by-Step Guide to Planting, Styling, and Maintaining Beautiful Aquariums.
I am a huge fan of George's book. There's really nothing like it on Amazon. If you are into creating terrariums or beautiful living vignettes—maybe you're working creatively with live plants—then George's book is a must-have.
At the beginning of George's book, he defines Aquascaping because some people are not familiar with that term. But George says Aquascaping is simply the art of creating beautiful aquariums, and he likes to explain the term as landscape gardening, but underwater.
It's well-known that aquariums have a therapeutic value when you watch them. They can also reduce anxiety levels and create a state of relaxation, which is so valuable in today's stressful world.
And, in terms of your own growth as a gardener, if you enjoy working with terrariums, maybe give Aquascaping a try this year. Aquascaping could be one of your goals to grow as a gardener in 2022.
George's book is very highly rated on Amazon. Everybody that I've talked to about this book raves about it. George did an excellent job.
This book is 200 pages of everything you need to know about growing plants in aquariums. (It's more than just adding water, by the way.)
