Laid-Back Publications

If the thought of home-growing the flower whose name is synonymous with all that is elegant and sophisticated…excites you, then perhaps these phalaenopsis or moth orchid books are for you. Grow orchids in your home? You can do that! Discover how easily these proven books can take you from the novice to journeyman (and beyond) levels of orchid culture, with or without a greenhouse. 

Beginners Guide To Growing Phalaenopsis Orchids (Beginner to 6 months.) is an introduction to the wonderful, but sometimes confusing,  world of the phalaenopsis orchid, sort of a Phalaenopsis for Complete Dummies. It will satisfy all the questions you have in your first year or so of orchid culture. Results are guaranteed.

Culture of the Phalaenopsis (or Phal) Orchid  (6 months and on.) is a complete grower's guide and will satisfy the needs of most for as long as they grow orchids. A best-seller.

Phalaenopsis Culture: A Worldwide Survey (Advanced.) is a survey of 150 of the world's best phal growers...from around the world and in a wide variety of growing conditions...and takes the reader on to the expert or power grower level of understanding. Supplies of Survey are limited.

Orchid Seedling Care (6 months and on.) introduces the seasoned grower to the delicate art of orchid seedling care, sort of a Doctor Spock’s handbook for phal growers. It also introduces the reader to the sophisticated art-science of water quality and plant nutrition for all flowering plants, not just orchids.

Garden Writing for newsletters and magazines. The guidance in this book could just as well be applied to writing on sheep-shearing, quilting, furniture refinishing or on clog dancing…or any other how-to subject, for that matter. The principles for newsletter and magazine writing are universal.
