There are so many great books out there, check abebooks for used books at great prices. What are you looking for in a book.? A type of orchid or general care or pollinating?

I'm primarily interested in general care... something a little quicker to answer the typical noob 100 top questions, by conveniently packaging all the answers in a dead-wood format, rather than having to search online each one individually. :-)

Thanks for pointer to abebooks, will check it out.

If you're still looking for a book, I really liked Orchids for Dummies when I was starting out. I never actually bought by own copy and just checked out the library's copy again and again haha.

I think estación seca brings up a good point by joining a orchid society. I thought they were most beneficial to me from a social standpoint, but picking the brains of the local experts goes hand in hand with having a couple reference texts.
