Seller: MazFamily, Longwood, FL, U.S.A.
Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Hardcover. Condition: As New. This hardcover copy of Flora's Orchids is Just Like New. No wear, No tears, and No markings. It was published in 2005. The spine is tight and the pages are clean and bright. There is no dust jacket because the book is enclosed in its own slipcase, which is also in As New condition. The previous owner took excellent care of his hundreds of books and magazines on orchids. I bought as many as I could. Please check back as it will take a while to list them all. The book comes from a smoke free home. I will ship it with Media Mail through USPS within two days of receiving the order, usually sooner. It will be wrapped very carefully. If you need Priority, let me know and I will work up a quote. I am always happy to combine shipping or offer discounts for multiple orders. Seller Inventory # ABE-1773001349609
