This book should not be seen as a work of science but as a book that is easy to read for the lover of orchids and especially for the lover of Paphiopedilum. It is intended for the connoisseurs who share the same inclination for this amazing flower. The book sets out to give the reader all round knowledge of the genus Paphiopedilum. It starts with the orchid hunters and how this increasing knowledge piloted the cultivation and multiplication of these amazing plants. This knowledge leads to the hybridization of different intra- and inter-subgenera to create man-made flowers of miraculous beauty. The book continues with the nomenclature of Cypripedieae its genera, sub-genera and species and varying opinions of it, followed by the cytogenesis of the genus Paphiopedilum, the colour management of its flowers, anatomy and morphology. The chapter 'Taxonomy' describes its historical development up to the present. The following chapter introduces all species of the genus Paphiopedilum with their specific botanical characteristics. The development of complex hybrids, maudiae type hybrids and multifloral hybrids are explained in detail. The last two chapters deal with some practical aspects of propagation, diseases and pests of the Paphiopedilum plant. All is presented in a unique artistic dialogue with the flowers as shown in all aquarelle paintings and illustration

Slipper orchids are amongst the most popular of all cultivated orchids. They are widely grown and have been hybridised for almost a century and a half. This book covers the tropical American species of three genera of slipper orchids, Selenipedium, Mexipedium and Phragmipedium. Until fairly recently the slipper orchid scene has been dominated by the tropical Asian species of the genus Paphiopedilum, however the discovery of a suite of spectacular new species, particularly in the genus Phragmipedium and of the monotypic Mexipedium xerophyticum,a true missing link, has transformed appreciation of the tropical American slipper orchid species. The new generation of hybrids that have resulted are showy, brightly coloured and long-lasting - favourites on the show bench and in the amateur greenhouse.This is the first monograph in English to cover the tropical American slipper orchids. Written by Phillip Cribb, perhaps the leading orchid taxonomist in the world, together with Christopher Purver, Director of the Eric Young Orchid Foundation, on the Isle of Jersey, renowned for its Phragmipedium breeding program.The authors provide a detailed systematic treatment of the genera and species, including their history,taxonomy, description, keys, distribution, cytology and ecology. A history of the breeding ofPhragmipedium hyrids since the second half of the 19th century deals with the revolution broughtabout by the discovery of the amazing scarlet -flowered P.besseae and the spectacular royal purple P. kovachii. Future breeding trends are also covered and the cultivation of these desirable plants is also discussed.Beautifully illustrated throughout with colour botanical paintings by Carol Woodin, as well as black andwhite line drawings, colour photographs and maps.
