Cactus and Succulents is a book dedicated to explaining the care of cacti and other related plants as indoor or outdoor plants. The care guides are fairly easy to understand, and the book shows clear photographs of each cactus type to help you identify it. I also like how the book explains how you can graft or grow cacti from seed, and explains some common misconceptions about succulents. The only reason I gave a 4 is because some now commonly sold species are missing from the book, but in general most common species are included.
