If you'd like to grow the healthiest orchids around and keep them
alive for five...seven...even eight or ten years (all while being the
envy of every orchid-lover around), then this might be one of the most
important messages you'll ever read.
The beauty of the orchid is known to anyone who has ever glanced in a
florist's window. But the breathless suspense of watching the growth
of an orchid is only known to those fortunate enough to own one.
It is both an exciting (and yet intimidating) experience to tend to
your first (or hundredth) orchid. And if you're just starting out (or
even if you've been growing orchids for awhile), trying to find
quality orchid-growing information is tough!
There isn't really a deliberate conspiracy to conceal information about
orchid growing, but there is still too little material available . Many
fine orchid books, first printed in expensive limited editions, have
been long out of print, and others, pub-lished abroad, have never even
been translated.
Recently a long-lost manuscript by orchid growing expert, Adelaide
Willoughby, has been rediscovered. Willoughby's work is one of the
greatest resources on orchid growing EVER written.
If doesn't matter if you're a beginner or pro grower - with this
single 119-page resource you'll have all the answers right at your
fingertips - anytime you need them.
Up until today, each orchid hunter, grower, and hybridizer jealously
guarded his or her secrets from curious and covetous eyes - but now,
this long-lost resource changes everything!
Beginning with a glimpse into the life secrets of the orchid and
continuing through to the rather specialized knowledge required for
growing orchids from a seed, the aim of Willoughby's work is to make
this fascinating and worthwhile passion (or hobby) available to anyone
who wants to get started.
(And for those already growing orchids, you'll pick up some advanced
tips sure to add variety and life to your collection.)
This is the perfect starter guide for beginners and pros alike,
complete with 51 pictures and illustrations, and simple and easy to
follow instructions in caring for many different types of orchids.

Now THAT'S funny.

Yeah, the poster is right...keeping my orchids alive for
"five...seven...even eight or ten years" is a real challenge for anyone who
has been growing for...OH, I don't know...five...seven...even eight or ten
years.

It's worth mentioning that these folks don't need them either,
but people that sell such books to the collectors do need them :-P.

(Then again, one of my favorite orchid books is out of print...
but it's an art thing more than a reference).
