"""Matsuyama has a calming, whimsical touch, and the accompanying photos are spare and airy, full of natural light, weathered wood surfaces, and rough-textured pottery. Matsuyama's minimalist take is sure to please."" -- Publishers Weekly ""This beginner-friendly book is perfect for those who are in the starter stage of succulent gardening."" -- Washington Gardener magazine"
