Features: Taiwan is one of the main production areas for Chinese orchids, with abundant wild orchid resources and a wide variety of species. In particular, Cymbidium sinense (known as "Four Seasons Orchid" in Taiwan) is renowned far and wide. Taiwan is also the birthplace of China's orchid industry. In the 1980s, Taiwan's orchid cultivation entered a large-scale, industrialized track, becoming an export-oriented industry. The orchids cultivated in Taiwan have high yields and excellent quality. Their leaves are lush and elegant, the plants are evenly proportioned and tall, and their roots are white and sterile, making them highly valuable for both ornamental and commercial purposes. From planting materials to management, this book provides a detailed introduction to Taiwan's orchid cultivation techniques, covering topics such as orchid farm construction, orchid planting, orchid care, and pest and disease control. Through exquisite illustrations, it also showcases the essence of Taiwan's traditional orchids, extending from floral art to wire art and plant form art.
