Book excerpt: "Hailed with great satisfaction in horticultural circles throughout the world." - Gardener's ChronicleOrchidomania: "An obsession with orchids; A pleasure gained from raising or collecting orchids." Do you have Orchidomania?Nineteenth century England was obsessed with orchids. Every notable royal and gentleman capitalist grew orchids. They obsessed about their care and culture. They went to any length to acquire (by any means) the best and most magnificent specimens available. Shows and exhibitions were dedicated to the intriguingly exotic and seductive orchid. Orchids were all the rage then...and still are today.This book may not cure Orchidomania...but who wants to be cured. Feed your love of orchids with one of the classic orchid growing books of all time. First published in 1882, the first volume of Warner's Orchid Album was avidly sought after by the upper crust of English orchid growers. Forty-seven beautiful orchid species and hybrids are lavishly illustrated in glorious, full-color botanical illustrations by legendary artists John Nugent Fitch.The Orchid Album was a originally published by the collaboration of two of the most influential orchid celebrities of the 19th Century; Robert Warner and Benjamin S. Williams. The Gardener's Chronicle described the Orchid Album as a "...magnum opus...which was projected with the idea of supplying a demand for illustrations of Orchidaceous plants, with botanical descriptions of the plants figured and notes on their cultivation.... Its appearance was hailed with great satisfaction in horticultural circles throughout the world, and it numbers among its subscribers nearly all lovers of Orchids and many of our leading and most influential horticulturalists."Originally, Warner's Orchid Album was published by subscription to an elite cadre of English society. Rare when it was first published, few orchid lovers have had an opportunity to gaze upon the beauty contained within its pages. The few existing copies command princely sums at auction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perching on tropical trees, partnering with fungi to reproduce, or deceiving birds and amorous insects to promote pollination, orchids fascinate. In the exquisitely illustrated Extraordinary Orchids, award-winning botanist and writer Sandra Knapp tells the stories behind some of the bizarre lifestyles and interactions that scientists have uncovered among many species of the orchid family. Orchids deserve such a visual celebration: parts of the orchid flower have shapes unlike any other flowering plant, and the sheer number of species means they have a seemingly endless ability to create ever more fantastical forms. In fact, many orchid common names refer to the shape-shifting forms of their flowers—the “man-orchids” or “monkey-orchids” are so called because of their resemblance to the primate form. Orchids lend themselves to depiction, and botanical artworks of them abound. Who could resist painting or drawing such odd shapes? Illustrated with stunning artwork, much from the archives of the Natural History Museum in London and never before published, Extraordinary Orchids includes depictions from celebrated botanical artists such as Ferdinand and Franz Bauer, Arthur Harry Church, and Sydney Parkinson, revealing the weird and wonderful lives of this most diverse of plant families.
