The Detail
Wild Creations by Hilton Carter, for a home full of living things
A beautiful, practical book about filling your home with striking plant-based decor. Grow a living moss wall, hang ivy and creeping figs from the ceiling, and fill a room with succulent-stocked terrariums. Hilton Carter was called "the LeBron James of plant styling" by Good Morning America, and his fearless approach to living with plants is genuinely infectious.
Key Features
- 25 step-by-step projects, from a wall-mounted plant to a leather hanging plant stand.
- Practical fixes for real plant worries: how much to water, watering while you are away, and repelling bugs.
- A detailed care guide to ten key houseplants.
- 240-page hardcover, generously photographed.
Pure Standard
- Publisher surplus, rescued rather than pulped. These are overprint copies that would otherwise have been destroyed. Keeping a perfectly good book in circulation is the reason we stock it.
- Paper and board throughout. No plastic jacket, no shrink wrap, nothing to peel off and bin.
- A reference rather than a single read. 240 pages of projects plus a care guide to ten houseplants, built to stay on the shelf and be returned to.
- Honest about condition. Surplus copies may carry a publisher's marker line on a page edge and light shelfwear. The text and photography are complete and unaffected, and we would rather tell you up front than have you discover it.

Our Take
Hilton Carter is the reason half of Instagram has a moss wall, and this is the book where he shows you how. Twenty-five actual builds rather than mood boards, plus a proper care guide for ten houseplants. Our copies are publisher surplus, so they are the books that would otherwise have been pulped.
