Description:
Second edition. Includes colour illustrations from watercolour paintings by Pandora Sellars and Carol Woodin. Paphiopedilums are one of the most popular of all orchid groups and are now widely grown throughout the world. There are almost 70 known species, all of which have their own attractive qualities appealing to growers, but many species are rare in the wild. In this revised edition, the author has synthesised recent evidence to produce a classification of the genus. Chapters on the hybridization, cultivation (by Michael Tibbs), and conservation are also included.
