Default The Sheehans's --Orchid Genera Illustrated

In article , says...
Awesome find! I've had my eye on this book for years and wasn't ready to
plunk down $100 for it.

There are some other botanical gems offered as well - search for "timber
press" and all kinds of goodies pop up. I got one of the Rhododendron
species books for $15 in addition to the Sheehan's book - will probably get
the other two rhody books in a little while.
