One of every seven flowering plants on earth is an orchid. Interest in growing orchids has risen dramatically in recent years, and many new varieties that can be grown in the home without a greenhouse have been developed. Research biologist and full-time garden writer Judy White now brings her expertise--and her stunning photographs--to this much needed book for the expanding world of home orchid growers.
Classic, indispensable guide to growing orchids. Wish I had found it years ago. I also wish that someone would update it (it's over 20 years old and the world of hybrids and reclassifications is ever-more complex). I love the general and specific advice sections, as well as the Appendices.
