Summary: If you get only one, make it this one!
Comment: This book is what quelled my fears about orchid care. It covers every aspect of orchid growing, and though I do own other orchid books, this book still outranks all the others. Beginners and advanced orchid enthusiasts can both understand and utilize the information in this book. The pest control chapter is informative, and clearly explains the different applications you can use to prevent pests. For a general reference book, this is the apex of orchid information.
Rating: 4
Summary: Likes and Dislikes
Comment: This is book is wonderful, no doubt and is a good book, that is, if you can find the orchid you are looking for in the book. This book has wonderful pictures and information, but only for those that are in the book. I find that this book is limited in the number of species, but it is great in that it actually has pictures and descriptions of certain hybrids. I have a Lycaste Aquila 'Detente' because of this book. The picture and the description inspired me to get this plant. The growing tips are great, but again, only for the orchids that are written about in the book.
Rating: 5
Summary: The best Orchid book around
Comment: If you just got your first Orchid and want to learn how to care for it or you've been collecting for years, this is a "MUST HAVE" book. I have many Orchid books and none come close to this one for readability and useful information. The photos are also wonderful. The person I bought many of my Orchids from carries this book in her back pocket and despite being incredibly knowledgeable, refers to it several times ever day. You can't go wrong buying this book.
