Paperback. Zustand: New. Language: English. About the book:-THE object of the work is to provide an authentic list of existing Orchid hybrids of artificial origin, arranged on a uniform system, so as to show at a glance the crosses that have already been made, the adopted name of the hybrids, the works in which they have been described and figured, the original raiser or exhibitor, and the date of first flowering in short it is intended as a guide to the already vast literature of the subject, and a standard of nomenclature. The work is divided into two parts. Part I. contains an enumeration of the species and hybrids which have been used as parents, these being arranged in alphabetical sequence, followed by the name of the resulting hybrid. Part II. contains, (1) an alphabetical enumeration of existing hybrids, each under its adopted name, followed by (2) the names of its parents, (3) references to descriptions and figures, (4) the name of the raiser or exhibitor, (5) date of first flowering, and (6) synonymy, these being followed in a few cases by (7) a short additional note.
