About Jon VanZile
Over the years, I’ve written for dozens of outlets, from small print magazines to top websites like NBC Universal.
I’m the author of five books, including four published by Simon & Shuster.
One of them made the Sunshine State recommended reading list for grade-school kids throughout the state of Florida, selling more than 100,000 copies. Another was a textbook for dental assistants published by Lippincot, Williams & Wilkins.
One of my strangest and proudest resume credits is a pair of articles I ghosted that were accepted in the journal Interventional Cardiology.
I run the largest website in the world devoted to pet health for a Fortune 500 company.
“A good houseplant is next best thing to a live-in housekeeper. They add a little pizazz and cosiness wherever you place them, and they can even help you get a better night’s sleep. With help from Houseplants for a Healthy Home … get ready to grab your gardening gloves and take a big, deep breath of fresh air (in your bedroom).”
“In these turbulent times, there’s one thing we can all agree on: Houseplants are magic. They can clean the air in your apartment and even grow in low-light conditions. And according to Jon VanZile’s new book, Houseplants for a Healthy Home, houseplants can even help you sleep better. Take that, iPhone app that tells me what I already know (last night, you tossed and turned!).”
“If there’s an indoor gardener in your life or you’re looking for a nice add-on to a growing gift, Houseplants for a Healthy Home by Jon VanZile provides details on caring for fifty different types of indoor plants. There’s also info about the health benefits of living with plants and general advice on maintaining houseplants.”
“For a lighter read, Houseplants for a Healthy Home is an illustrated encyclopedia of easy-to-grow houseplants, annotated with each plant’s health benefits and detailed care instructions.”
