Dear All, Sadly, after growing orchids for 26 years, due to a very bad back, I am no longer to grow them any more. I have sold 90% of the plants but have some good quality books for sale.
Would you be interested in them at all? They are:- The Orchids Of Bhutan, NR Pearce & PJ Cribb, Mint. H/B Lowland Orchids of Papua New Guinea, Peter O'Byrne, 584 p, brand new, mint. H/B Manual of Orchidaceous Plants, J Veitch, 2 vols. Original copy, not a reprint. These were rebound last year at a cost of £100+. Hand stitched. Superb looking volumes.
