I purchased to learn a little on botanical history of orchids and how they are grouped. Very well written. Probably not for someone who isn't serious about their orchid family. Delivered the info I was looking for and a great reference book when I see something unfamiliar at shows and the like.

This book is an invaluable reference for looking up the 880 or so orchid genera. I use it regularly as a starting point when researching a genus I'm interested in. This book also has a superb introduction to orchid structure, function, physiology, history, etc. For example, I learned more about orchid root structure from this book than any book I've read.I want to thank the authors of this book for producing such a useful and valuable reference for orchid growers.

Great book that shows the genealogy of most species. Also shows commons nd uncommon names of 100’s of species

Good book. I The descriptions are a bit skimpy but I suppose the author didn't have much choice given the number of orchids in the World.

I ordered this book and find it very thorough in its covering of orchid genera. When I ordered it, Amazon also recommended the New Encyclopedia of Orchids - 1500 Species in Cultivation. The information is identical in both books. There is no need to order both.

I received the book! Very nice!

Great book! Lots of detail and great pictures. Bought it as a gift for an orchid lover

The book is an excellent introduction to various genera: a short description about habitat with a picture of an orchid flower from every genera makes it very comprehensive. It will be more appreciated by a person with some bit of familiarity and abundant interest in orchids than a beginner who wants to learn about orchids.

Collection of pertinent information for the orchid enthusiast. A must have, and I'm not even the type to say "must have".

We did have a small problem but was very efficiently sorted. Thank you very much

Very good book, a lot of kind of Orchids with pics and drawing, groups and tips, we like itLivre tres interessant, beaucoup de sortes d'orchidées sont présentées en dessin ou photo, un très bel ouvrage
