"The authors provide data on what type of environment and climatic conditions are needed for each specific genera of orchid, explain the classification of orchids by growth habits, and give basic instructions on their cultivation...propagation methods, pests and diseases. An orchid identifier with color photographs of 128 plants...gives the plant's history, habitat, flowering time, and temperature range. Excellent for beginners."- Booklist.
This is a good book for beginner orchid growers. There is lots of information in this book, and really good pictures. The only thing bad about it, is this is the EXACT same book as "Orchids An Illustrated Identifier and Guide to Cultivation". I was very disappointed in this as I already had "Orchids an Illustrated Identifier and Guide to Cultivation".
