“It is difficult with mere words, to describe how interesting I found these volumes. That Dr Teoh has seen and photographed them all in pursuit of a hobby that has occupied him for 50 years is amazing. If you buy these books (forget the price), these orchids and his knowledge will be with you for ever. They are volumes for browsing and reference, written in a readable and memorable style with … .” (Henry Oakeley, Orchid Society of Great Britain Journal, Vol. 71 (4), 2022)“The three-volume set of this wonderful and important reference series is now complete and available. … It is fascinating to read and see the background of so many of the orchids the orchid-growing community in most parts of the world loves and grows. Dr. Teoh’s study of orchids for over 50 years has helped to preserve the knowledge of so many genera of orchids and present that information in this impressive three volume set.” (Paul Alan Wetter, ORCHIDS, October, 2022)
