5.0 out of 5 stars A sensuous treat!

1.0 out of 5 stars A Catalogue of Errors
This is one of the worst orchid books I have ever seen. It is literally a catalogue of misidentified orchids. Some of the worst examples are a Phalaenopsis species and an Epidendrum species both labled as Laeliocattleyae. In a general survey there were 8-10 identification mistakes.

As if that weren't enough, there were at least 2 pictures, meant to depict the beauty of orchids, that showed blossoms with either bruised, fading or fungus-spotted petals.

Neither inspiring nor reliable in its content.
