Excerpt from A Manual of Orchidaceous Plants Cultivated Under Glass in Great Britain, Vol. 1: Epidendre This Manual has been compiled to supply amateurs and cultivators of exotic Orchids with a fuller account of the principal genera, species and varieties cultivated under glass, than is contained in the Manuals hitherto in use. The rapid extension of Orchid culture during the last quarter of a century, resulting from the increased taste for and appreciation of this beautiful and interesting order of plants, has created the desideratum which we have now attempted to supply. The prominent place, too, occupied by Orchids in the columns of the Horticultural Press, and the amount of practical and varied information respecting them disseminated through its agency, has also stimulated the desire to obtain all the leading facts in a condensed form, to which easy reference may at any time be made. SO numerous are the species and varieties of Orchids at present in cultivation, and to which additions are constantly being made by new discoveries and by artificial hybridisation, that the labour attending the compilation of a Manual sufficiently comprehensive to meet the wants of cultivators has necessarily taken up much time. Moreover, the un satisfactory state of Orchidology, especially in its horticultural aspect at the time this Manual was commenced and its complicated and unscientific nomenclature, have rendered its compilation within a stated time almost an impossibility.
