About this book
Orchid growing, Frederick Boyle insists, is within reach of people of modest means, and this book of essays is his way of saying so. Collected from newspapers and magazines including the Saturday Review and Longman's Magazine, the pieces cover his own gardening, an orchid sale, cool, warm and hot orchids, the lost orchid and an orchid farm, ending with a chapter on hybridizing. The 1893 volume has coloured plates of species such as Vanda sanderiana and Cattleya labiata, and is dedicated to Joseph Godseff.
