{HISTORY}

Move over all you verdant shades of green green green houseplants. There's a whole colorful world of gardening joy just waiting to bloom, crawl and climb all over the inside of your space! With the ability to create just as much dynamic interest, visual stimulation, and gardening joy equal to any outdoor paradise, this book is here to bring some wild wonder into your home.

This Pocket Encyclopedia of Indoor Plants was first published in Copenhagen in 1969 by Danish municipal gardener Age Nicolaisen. Based on Europe's long-cultivated talent for creating gorgeous indoor gardens, this book focuses solely on growing a wide variety of flowering potted plants indoors year-round. 

In 1970, an American edition was published. The information was altered to suit the majority of U.S. homes that boasted indoor central heating - a  situation that presented a different set of challenges when it came to growing plants in a warmer drier environment than that of their European counterparts. 

In his guide, Age is candid about what works. Forget the lemons and the oranges and the grapefruit, grow a Chinese Kumquat on your windowsill instead. They'll provide year-round flowers and fruit and require less care than their citrus counterparts. If you have a sunny sill that gets too much sun and bakes the room each day add a potted passion flower plant in front of the window and watch it climb to sunshade heights all the while sporting beautiful purply-blue blooms. Looking for a plant that will flower in low light for eight months out of the year with frilly flowers and a bush-like appearance? Try a Brazilian Brunfelsia Calycina which blooms from February-September, at the least and year-round at the most. Throughout this book, Age offers all sorts of situations and solutions. 

No aspect of plant care is left uncovered. Age also explains the ideal growing conditions, light requirements, room temperature highs and lows, and nutrition needs for the soil of each potted plant. Special notes on trimming, propogating and caring for plants year-round are also detailed along with the possibilities of which ones can be moved around between indoors and out depending on the season. 

Beautifully illustrated by two award-winning Danish artists, Palle Bregnhoi (1933-2016) and Otto Frello (1924-2015), this book is overflowing with flowers on every page. One of the really great things about this guide in particular is that it not only shows the true colors of each plant and flower but also the ideal shape of what the plant should look like in its pot. If you were looking for something tall and skinny or lush and round or petite and flat, you'll be able to find exactly what you need just by perusing the illustrations. So helpful!

EUFY 11S
Size: 2+8 pack
Used to replace the ones for my EUFY 11S vacuum. They fit just like the ones and got my vacuum back to cleaning really good. Didn’t realize how loud my vacuum had become until I replaced these parts.

Rejuvenates your Robovac, but one caution
I was a little wary buying third-party aftermarket parts for my Eufy Robovac 30c, however, all the parts in this kit are virtually identical to OEM parts. I replaced all three brushes and all three filters and let it loose on my Golden Retriever-inhabited living room. I can honestly say the result was a 50% increase in the amount of fur collected. I suspect that over time there is a loss of performance so gradual that it's easy to not notice. I assume the new filters returned the vacuum power to it's original level of suction was a big factor. When I was browsing through all the available choices here on Amazon, a plastic "ring" kept appearing in many of the product images, however, people did not know what it is for or simply did not get one in their shipment. If you look at the photos I've attached one can see that I did indeed get one and figured out its purpose, to remove fur and/or hair from the horizontal brush. The bottom line is that I would definitely buy this item again. =========== EDIT, four weeks later: Since replacing the main roller brush with the one included with this product, I have experienced several “Roller brush is stuck” shutdowns and alerts. In each case, there has been nothing tangled in the brush and the brush was free to spin. I have to say it’s quite annoying to come home expecting the floor to be cleaned but only to find this error long before the job was finished. Today it gave this error twice in one cleaning cycle. I never experienced this problem with the OEM roller brush.

Euphy works good as new!
Style: 19 Pack
As soon as I opened the package everything looked the same- pre-filters, filters, main brush, and side brushes. I changed the big brush first;the only issue was the new brush body didn't have the white arrows to help aligning but that didn't affect how the brush worked. I changed filter and pre-filter, and finally the side brushes. When I turned on my "Goophy" and tried to let her run the side brushes were a little too (Goophy's side brushes sounded a little louder). I trimmed the side brushes a little and all was well. Goophy didn't want to run herself but it didn't take long for me to figure out it wasn't the new brushes ;just the operator pushing the wrong button. My Goophy Euphy did what she was supposed to do- vacuum the carpet and tile floor. Goophy Euphy still wanted to take the long way to her charging station which was nothing new and easily corrected. Over all the new brushes and filter restored Goophy Euphy back to when we first used her!
