A Spray of Orchids
---
The Penang Bookshelf's Orchid Books Catalogue

The Penang Bookshelf is happy to announce recent instructions to dispose of a large selection of books about Orchidaceae, Orchids, one of the two largest families  of flowering plants. The largest group of orchids are native to the tropical areas of the word, i.e. parts of Africa, America and Asia. Most of the books listed below will be of interest to the Asian orchid enthusiast, although some are appropriate for those interested in orchids in general.

The majority of the books are in fine or near fine condition. In other words the look like new.

Full details of these books are being prepared for sale on The Penang Bookshelf's website. However if you would like further details of any of them before then, do please contact us. Books are sent post free within Malaysia and also post free to Singapore where books are part of an order of more than 2kg
