Amazing book!

I heard the author speak at our orchid society years ago! He was extremely down to earth for being a knowledgeable university professor! This book reflects his LOVE of orchids and the desire to amaze others with thier beauty! AMAZING PHOTOGRAPHY! His wife was one of the best botanical artists to date!

Beautiful Pictures

This book is very nice with respect to the orchid pictures they have in here. Very nice for a coffee table center piece and an excellent gift to inspire a soon to be orchid lover. They would be absolutely awestruck with their beauty and these photos bring out the best qualities in the flowers. It gives a good description but maybe a little too simple for those in the advance stages of growing. They do, though, have some nice pictures of fairly rare orchids. For example, there is a picture of a Cymbidium canaliculatum there that is absolutely beautiful (not variety sparkesii!. Growing tips are okay, but the book is more for the identification part and the enjoyment of the family Orchids.

Amazing pictures!

If you are looking for a book with great clear pictures of the many different types of orchids this is the book for you!It is great for Identifying the different species you see and want to know what they are. Has some informational parts about the orchid and how it has been used over time and civilizations. GREAT BOOK!
