Eric Hagsater et al
This book presents the great diversity of form and colour adopted by the
species of family Orchidaceae in Mexico, which is represented in
practically all the ecosystems of the country. With it we intend to show
not only the beauty and variety of their flowers, but also their uses and
associated traditions, their pollination systems, a review of the places
they inhabit, the factors that threaten them, and the opportunities that
they offer.

Anne Harrap and Simon Harrap
Well illustrated orchid guide, covering the identification, biology and
conservation of every species of British and Irish orchid. Until recently,
the whereabouts of the rarer species was shrouded in secrecy. In the last
few years, however, these veils have been lifted and it is now possible to
publish locations for all but one or two species.

The compilation of photographs of more than 150 species of Cuba's orchids
will allow those who are not regular visitors to regions where these
wonders live, or those who do not notice many of these species due to their
small size, to enjoy the beauty of this group of plants, a genuine treasure
of the Cuban flora.

Arthur A Chadwick and Arthur E Chadwick
In 1818, William Cattley succeeded in flowering one of the first species of
the genus that would bear his name. These first cattleyas are the classic
cattleyas, whose form defined the essence of tropical orchids for
generations to come. Indeed, the colour of their flowers became known as
"orchid." In this helpful and informative book, each classic Cattleya
species is described in fascinating detail, and its role in breeding
programs is elucidated.
