Due to the extreme isolation of Burma's rugged mountainous regions, and a political situation that discourages access into large areas of the country, Burma is host to perhaps the largest remaining population of rare species of wild orchids on earth. The present book is the first of a planned series of six volumes intended to describe and illustrate the variety and beauty of the many species of these noble plants still extant in Burma. The author, both a distinguished botanist and a skilled photographer, combined these talents to produce this beautifully illustrated, authoritative volume, illustrating all specimens in their natural, wild environment. The present Volume 1 surveys the varieties of wild orchids to be found in Burma's Shan States. Bilingual English / Japanese text. 104 pp., 121 colour illustrations, references. Size: 27.5 x 26 cm.

Most orders are dispatched by latest the day following your order acceptance and many will depart the very same day.

We ask you to please be patient with the current postal situation which is beyond the influence or control of any of us.
