Into Green is a meditative and engaging guide to help us reconnect with nature and tune in to the natural world around us

Into Green is an inspiring collection of projects, wisdom and ideas that guide you to explore the natural world around you.

“Brimful with accessible and inventive ideas, this beautiful book provides an inspiring and practical guide to fostering calm and connectedness.”
― Sue Stuart-Smith, author of The Well Gardened Mind

This brilliant book invites you to journey into nature, no matter how urban your environment or green your neighbourhood.

This is a book of projects, wisdom and ideas that not only inspire you to get outside and enjoy this beautiful planet, but to find meaningful interactions with nature that cultivate a happier headspace.

Authors Caro Langton and Rose Ray, founders of Ro Co @studio.roco, explore how being surrounded by green can bring you calm, hope, bravery, wonder and a sense of belonging, and help you connect with green so that you can expand and retreat, grow and disappear, and to ultimately find and lose yourself in nature. This book teaches you how nature can help you build confidence, believe in yourself, and travel a path that is authentic to you.

Into Green full of simple rituals to incorporate into your everyday life, as well as facts, wonders and science that spark awe (which almost always lead to seeing the world differently) as well as creative projects that build a confident relationship with nature, from creating a wildflower window box to dyeing fabrics with plant materials.

Caro Langton and Rose Ray are the founders of plant design studio Ro Co @studio.roco and have a decade of experience in the indoor garden design business. They are the authors of best-selling houseplant care and styling bible House of Plants and the popular propagation guide Root Nurture Grow.
