Unfortunately I forgot what the title of the book or the author was. It seems like a good book for the Phalaenopsis afficionado.

I think I know which book you are talking about. Is it "Moth Orchids: The Complete Guide to Phalaenopsis" ? (by Steven A. Frowine.) I have his mini orchids book, which is excellent, and really want to get the phal one! And the one on fragrant orchids too!

I did a Google search on the internet and found it. Yup, like Camille said, it was "Moth Orchids: The Complete Guide to Phalaenopsis" by Steven A. Frowine.

Good book, it's worth checking out.
