Items related to The New RHS Dictionary Manual of Orchids
This volume, based on the "New RHS Dictionary of Gardening", defines and describes the orchid family combining what is current in botany with horticultural practice. The manual covers virtually all 180,000 orchid species, grexes and cultivars available. Each genus is furnished with a precise botanical account, together with guidelines for successful growing, In addition, an introductory essay explores the themes common to all orchids - their botany, propagation, hybridization, conservation and culture. There are hardy orchids - additions to the rock, bog and woodland garden, species and hybrids tough enough to withstand the most hostile locations in the home - and the vast panoply of others from the dwarf Masdevallias to the Cattleyas, Castetums and giant Grammatophyllum.

Review:
This manual offers more extensive information than any other known to me. -- Robert L. Dressler "Orchids" (07/01/1996) This is an excellent reference work... It would become well used in an orchid specialists library. -- Rich Heeseler "Hobby Greenhouse" (02/01/1996) [A] serious reference book. ...best suited to the horticultural library for general reference -- Margaret C. Crooks "Asbury Park Press" (04/11/1996) The wealth of information of culture of specific genera and the inexpensive cost of the book make this a necessary addition to the bookshelf of anyone remotely interested in orchids. -- Gary J. Wilfret "HortScience" (12/01/1996)
