Has anyone read "Orchid Fever?"

[Paul Mc]

Are these stories true or made up?! I can see them being somewhat based in fact - but oh my! It makes us all out to be a bunch of orchid-holic, orchid pirates kinda akin to druggies! LOL... Of course, I'm only on chapter 5 now, but I'm wondering just how much is based on fact.

It is an amazing read! I had no clue I was living on the "wild side" of life by growing orchids. Nor did I ever imagine that an 80 year old grandmother who collected paph's could ever expect an armed military raid on her home because some of her paph's might be now illegal!

I'm now wishing I had saved my receipts for all of my orchids to avoid going to jail, lol...!
