Book
Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. Near fine condition red cloth boards/red cloth spine/gold spine lettering contained in a good condition price-clipped color photographic dust jacket. Includes Preface by the author dated December 1949; Acknowledgments; Bibliography; Appendix A: Key to the Tribes and Genera of the Orchid Family; Appendix B: Sources of Orchid Plants and Supplies; and Index. Illustrated with both black-and-white photographs and full page color photographic plates. "A legend of mystery once surrounded orchid culture. The specialized structure that enabled orchids to survive the crowded hazards of tropical jungles defeated the early attempts of devoted amateurs, horticulturists, and commercial growers to tame this most seductive of blooms. The author.now a veteran orchidist, has learned how to avoid the pitfalls that await the novice in this most thrilling and rewarding of hobbies. She succeeds in communicating to others the excitement and adventure she herself still experiences in raising orchids - from seed to market. Written primarily for the beginner, [the book] covers every phase of orchid culture. Each step is explained in detail and illustrated with how-to-do-it photographs. Experienced growers, too, will find here the answers to many questions and will discover new fields to try. Every major species and tribe of orchid is fully treated, as well as scores of species interesting primarily to collectors. Methods of growing orchids in the home are given, as well as greenhouse cultivation. Ways to make orchids a profitable hobby, with corsages and wholesale marketing, are also included. To those interested in the fascinating field of orchid breeding, the chapter on hybrids wit be amply rewarding. Mrs. Northen writes with engaging directness. She has organized her material in a logical progression: the what is neatly tied in with the why throughout. [The book] will be welcomed by the growing number of amateurs who need only the competent guidance Mrs. Northen provides to get started on a gardening adventure that is practically unlimited in personal joy and satisfaction. The illustrations are largely from photographs taken in Mrs. Northen's own home and greenhouses. There are 11 full color plates of great beauty, 22 line drawings and diagrams, and 112 black and white halftones." - from the inner front jacket flap.
