Book excerpt: In fin de siecle France, orchid rearing was something of an obsession, and Emile Libreck commissioned artist Brun to paint his rare specimens. The paintings, bound in leather volumes, have been shown only twice since the 1950s. Fifty-nine of Brun's watercolors are beautifully reproduced in this oversized (10.25x13") volume, each captioned in some detail by Phillip Cribb (curator of the orchid herbarium at the [British] Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew). In an illustrated essay, Cribb explains the background of the art of orchid cultivation, and the cutthroat competitiveness of orchid collecting. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.

Book excerpt: As stated many times before the purpose of Orchid Biology, Reviews and Perspectives (OB) is to present reviews on all aspects of orchids. The aim is not to balance every volume, but to make a balanced and wide ranging presentation of orchids in the series as a whole. The chapters in this, the last volume of the series, range over a number of topics which were not covered before. Singapore is justly famed for its orchids. They can be seen on arrival (or dep- ture) in its modern, highly efficient and comfortable Changi Airport and on the way from it to town. Vanda Miss Joaquim, the first hybrid to come from Singapore became its National Flower. This natural hybrid can be seen on its currency, stamps, and public and private decorations. Many excellent breeders, starting with Prof. Eric Holttum who bred the first man made hybrid (Spathoglottis Primrose), produced numerous magnificent hybrids and won countless awards in Singapore and elsewhere. These hybrids served to enrich the country’s orchid mystique. In the opening chapter of this volume Dr. Teoh Eng Soon (Western style: Eng Soon Teoh), himself a prize winning orchid breeder, grower and author writes about some of the breeders who contributed to the Singapore orchid fame. Prof. Hans Fitting was one of the best known plant physiologists of his time. As a young man he studied the effects of pollen on orchid flowers.
