Product Description:
Orchids are the largest family of plants in the world. With 30,000 known species, you could acquire a different orchid every day for eighty years and still not grow them all. Back in the realm of reality, readers of this beautiful book can quickly and easily find the orchids that are right for them -- which ones will thrive on a windowsill, which prefer artificial lights, and which need a greenhouse; which are for beginners, which for experts. And you can pinpoint the species within a particular genus that are the best ones to start with. Once you select your orchid, William Cullina's authoritative guide explains what to do to keep it alive and healthy. Featuring more than two hundred color photographs, Understanding Orchids covers everything you need to know to grow orchids successfully, whatever your level of interest or experience. With improved tissue-culture techniques making orchids more affordable, and the Internet making them readily available to consumers, growing orchids is more popular than ever: membership in the American Orchid Society has more than doubled in the last fifteen years. This is the book orchid fans have been waiting for.

- Saving my orchid's life!
I bought an orchid on impulse & then got this book to figure out how to care for it. Should have bought the book beforehand, but that would have made sense. :) This book is an awesome intro into orchid care & varieties. The 1st 1/2 of the book has chapters (well balanced between helpful pictures & text) discussing elements of orchid care. The 2nd 1/2 describes many orchid families in decent detail. The family descriptions inform about the natural habitat of the family, the optimal care for the family ... Read More

- What a Great Book!
As a total orchid newbie I looked everywhere and asked every orchid "expert" I could about care of these glorious little plants. After a lot of bad advice, I luckily came across this book one day using Google Books.
I purchased it through Amazon and it has proven itself to be invaluable. Logical and chock full of information, this lovely book has something for every orchid lover. My orchids are flourishing and that's always a beautiful thing!
A must have!

- Wonderful book for a newbie to Orchids
This book explains it all. From lighting to the different kind of Orchid. I recommend it highly to someone looking into starting their own Orchid collection or even those with years of experience with these wonderful plants. Has terrific colored illustrations as well.

The book breaks down each aspect of orchid care: lighting, humidity, watering, potting & mounting, diseases, and even reproduction. There is also a wonderful listing of common orchid genera and their care requirements. They're listed with ratings of beginner-experienced-expert for their ease of care. The pictures are absolutely stunning. The book is an easy read and I come back to ... Read More
