Excerpt from The Orchid-Grower's Manual, Containing Brief Descriptions of Upwards of Eight Hundred Species and Varieties of Orchidaceous Plants: Together With Notices of Their Times of Flowering, and Most Approved Modes of Treatment February, March, and April, they must be exposed to an atmosphere of 110??? in the shade. That the fresh-grown pseudobulbs are by this means reduced in size or shrivelled there can be no question and in some of the mountain Orchids this reduction takes place to such an extent as to render it doubtful whether they are the same plants, when first seen at the end of rains. Now take the case of these plants under culture the growing or rainy season past, their supply of water would be gradually diminished, and they would be exposed to the full effects of the sun with plenty of air, but only so long as they could withstand this treatment without shrivelling; should this condition ensue, or should exhaustion from any other cause arise, the cultivator steps in, and by judicious treatment preserves the strength and consequently the health of the plant, whilst the plants in their native localities must bear the full power of the scorching sun, let even death be the result. Here, then, I say is a proof that art does in some instances assist nature. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
