Orchids Care and Cultivation by Gerald Leroy-Terquem & Jean Parisot

Orchids can be found in virtually all regions of the world, and have attracted people for many years with the exquisite colors and beautiful shapes of their flowers. But how can you grow these extraordinary plants? There's advice on cultivating orchids in the home (on a windowsill, on a trolley, and in a window greenhouse) and in the greenhouse (heating, ventilation, temperature control, storage and maintenance, and more). Next come potting and composts, light, water and humidity, feeding, propagation, germinating seeds, and pests, diseases, and other ailments. From fertilizers and containers to pruning, watering, and weeding, the essential information you need to know is here. The last section describes 30 orchid genera, including their history, physiology, and horticulture requirements. Rather than simply admire the beauty of hids, why not cultivate some of your own!
