Also "Orchid Growing for Wimps" by Ellen Zachos is a pretty good book for
beginners. It has nice tables for different orchid genuses' temperature,
light, etc. requirements. And it is not a very thick book, so if you just
want the basics quickly, it's a good summary for beginners.
Best,

Can anybody recommend a decent book? I bought my orchids when blooming
and although they seem happy enough and keep putting out leaves, they
haven't bloomed again. Just curious what the technique is or how long I
need to wait.
