Orchid Species Culture: Pescatorea, Phaius, Phalaenopsis, Pholidota, Phragmipedium, Pleione
This volume, the first in a projected series, covers six popular orchid genera. The Bakers' unique approach to orchid cultivation stresses the importance of maintaining climatic conditions similar to those in each species' native habitat. The climate tables created by the authors provide precise, usable information which enables the grower to adjust growing conditions to approximate those of the species in the wild. The weather data is supplemented with information from successful growers. No illustrations. Acidic paper. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
