    This is a beautiful book that opened up the world of miniature orchids for me. The information provided on each species is concise yet more than thorough enough for my needs as a hobbyist. I love the vivid, full color pictures that the author generously uses to show the hundreds of miniature varieties. I also found many useful tips on cultivation and insect and disease control that are covered in easy to understand terms in the first couple of chapters. If you want to learn more about miniature orchids without having to wade through excessive botanical and scientific jargon, I think you will find this book to be very helpful.

    This book covers a wide array of miniature orchids – over 300 – with beautiful, detailed illustrations and information – about the flowers, blooom season, planting requirements, etc. I especially like the planting tips – ease of culture, and light and temperature requirements.

    I LOVE this wonderfully detailed book on orchid miniatures and have bought several copies to give as gifts to friends!
