PREFACE
|
This book presents biology to the reader in a manner quite different from the usual approach. Newcomers to orchidology are given answers to practical and elementary questions on such matters as obtaining, housing and caring for orchids. Guidance is given on suitable types for the beginner and the method of sorting out the names of orchids is given some prominence. The experienced grower is catered for in both chapter material and a series of topics on special subjects. Forty-eigh colour plates serve to illustrate many of the statements made in the text. This is a most useful book for a wide range of growers.
