Orchids are among the most popular flowers and can be found on windowsills in many homes. Additionally, the community of enthusiasts interested in wild-growing orchids is also growing, with many engaging deeply with them. This beautifully illustrated book presents individual portraits of over 30 European orchid species. It aims to assist readers in discovering, identifying, and classifying orchids in their natural habitats. The text, written by Danish botanist Henrik Æ. Pedersen, is accompanied by watercolor illustrations created specifically for this book by the experienced artist and orchid expert Bo Mossberg. These illustrations are not only beautiful little artworks in their own right but also have the advantage of depicting every detail of each orchid more accurately than color photographs, thus aiding the reader in identification.
