About the Author
J.N. Rentoul grew orchids for over 50 years until his death in 1991. Starting as an amateur with no formal horticultural or botanical training, he became, through many years of research and practical experience, a recognized authority worldwide on orchid cultivation. His series of books from Timber Press covering the major orchid genera has become a standard reference for orchid lovers, providing extensive down-to-earth culture information throughout.
