In the early days of orchid cultivation, there was skepticism about their popularity due to high initial costs and ongoing expenses. However, this idea has been proven wrong, as orchid cultivation has shown remarkable growth and progress worldwide.

Orchid-growing was initially seen as a craze, with high prices for novelty varieties, which discouraged the average person. However, this classic edition aims to demonstrate the simplicity of growing orchids, especially cooler species, and hopes to inspire many to start cultivating them.

The author, James O’Brien, highlights the significant advancements in orchid cultivation, including the ability to raise seedling orchids at home, which tend to thrive better than imported species. O’Brien shares his extensive knowledge on cross-breeding and seed-raising, which is a result of years of experience, including his time as a cultivator at the Pine Apple Nurseries and his work with the Royal Horticultural Society. O’Brien’s expertise has earned him recognition, including the prestigious Victoria Medal of Honour.
