STOP! If you want proven successful methods to grow orchids. If you’re reading this letter, you must love orchids. If you’re lucky enough to own an orchid and it’s still alive– you’re probably curious how to keep it alive, get it to grow and bloom every year. Let’s face it - orchids are fussy plantsMaybe they’ve just got a bad rap because those of us who love them, want to keep how really easy it is to care for them, a secret. It’s funny how so many people are intimidated by these plants - how much water do they need? How much sunlight? When does it need to be repotted? I’m never asked questions like these about common houseplants, like ferns. After all, how could something that looks so exotic, with such delicate flowers, be easy to keep, you ask? It’s simple and I’m going to prove it to you! The book is called: "ORCHIDS TO BRAG ABOUT" and it’s filled with easy-to-understand tips that answer many of the questions I’ve been asked over the years. You see, I didn’t know anything about growing orchids when I was given my first one over 10 years ago. My grandmother took a vacation to Maui and she actually hid an orchid in her carry-on bag and brought it back to me in Connecticut. That was my very first experience with an orchid and that’s when my lifelong fascination with this tropical plant began. Here’s Why You Can Believe What I Say! First of all I’ve owned countless varieties of orchids in all shapes and sizes. Secondly I’ve also lived in 4 different states from New England to the Deep South – all the while, keeping my orchids alive. And, Finally I learned this stuff the hard way – by reading loads of books on orchids, going to orchid flower shows, visiting orchid greenhouses and asking all kinds of questions from people who were “experts” at growing orchids. I listened to a lot of advice and tried a lot of suggestions – some worked, some didn’t. I even began to experiment with a few of my own ideas – some worked, some didn’t. A couple of years ago, I began coaching my friends on how to grow their orchids. Once they began having success with their plants, I decided to share my tips with more orchid-lovers by making books like this available. I’ll not lie to you – all of my orchids aren’t still alive – I’ve definitely been challenged by them, but the rewards I feel when I get one to re-bloom or send up a new leaf is worth all the work. You don’t need to face the challenges I’ve already mastered! The “Orchids To Brag About” book will answer many of your questions in both words and colorful photographs, like: What do you do with an orchid once it’s done blooming? When and how often do you repot an orchid? How much do I water my orchid? How do you get an orchid to bloom, even if it hasn’t bloomed for years? How long do orchids last? How often do you fertilize an orchid?..........
