Title: Growing Orchids by David P. Banks ISBN: 0-7432-0348-8 Publisher: Simon & Schuster Australia Pub. Date: September, 2001 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $16.00 |
Average Customer Rating: 3 (1 review)
Rating: 3
Summary: Good introductory book, but not comprehensive as indicated
Comment: I live in a tropical country and wanted to know about growing orchids commercially. I bought the book expecting to get a thorough understanding of the "basics" of orchid cultivation. The book was NOT expected to make me a knowledgeable grower.
Considering my prior knowledge was low (I had an extremely basic knowledge of Dendrobiums), I learned a few things about growing orchids. In general, the book gives a very basic knowledge of orchids and their cultivation. I felt depth of coverage was far too weak for someone interested in commercial cultivation, or the orchid enthusiast. If that was the purpose of the book, then I would rate it a single star. On the other hand, if you were just growing a few orchids in your house and wanted to learn a bit more about the species, this book would serve your purpose admirably. For that purpose, it should be rated 4-5 stars. Therefore, I gave it 3 stars.
