Book Description
Already a popular book found in fine orchid shops and bookstores, this text is not too technical for the hobbyist, yet contains abundant information of interest to the orchid expert. It begins with an introduction to Brazilian geography and climate, the history of orchids in Brazil, information on growing Brazilian species, and the state of orchid conservation in the country, followed by an alphabetical listing of 300 species and varieties, each accompanied with a color photograph, detailed description, botanical history, and information on cultivation.
