The stunning photographs in this exquisite small volume capture the exciting variety of contemporary orchids. Over 100 orchids are illustrated, all of which can be grown successfully in the home.
All specially shot, the photographs reveal the beauty and amazing individuality of orchids and for each there is a detailed description as well as practical information on size and required temperature. Orchids have the most exotic flowers in the whole plant world but they are surprisingly easy to grow at home. All the most popular flowers are included, as well as many that are less well-known.
For all those who are attracted to orchids and want to pursue their interest, the book includes a complete final chapter that explains all you need to know about care and cultivation.
