These books by Mary Noble are a rare find indeed. We have recently acquired a relatively small quantity of these remarkable books in new condition. Known by many as the "First Lady of the Orchid World", she was born in 1917 and lived to be 88, passing away in June of 2006. She was known around the world for her expertise and passion for orchids. She founded the Jacksonville Orchid Society in 1943 and maintained a greenhouse with hundreds of varieties of orchids. She was a certified judge with the American Orchid Society and also an Honorary Vice President of the Society.
Each of her books are a treasure, simple and direct, written in a style that encourages all of us to jump in and experience the pleasure of growing these spectacular plants. Each of these paperback books have great illustrations ( pictures, drawings and diagrams ). They are easy to read books that you will be delighted to own and you can be certain will make great gifts for the experienced grower and the newest enthusiast alike.
To our knowledge these great books are now out of print and it is not known if more copies will be printed in the future.
This book also makes a wonderful gift for the grower/hobbyist you know.
Reviews
“This fall I religiously followed your advice, creating an environment of shortened days and lower temps in order to encourage blooming...I was successful. FINALLY!! Thank you, thank you!! Both of my plants decided to bloom and they look beautiful. I wanted to share the good news and my gratitude with you. Thanks again!”Laurie J.
“The potting medium you sent is gorgeous!! It's superior to the bark I've been buying at Lowe's. I can't imagine what (my orchids) will do when I put them in your potting mix. It even smells fresh!! Many, many thanks. I'll be ordering from you again.” Janie M.
“Folks, My order [slotted pots and mix] arrived way before expected - and I am extremely happy with it! I harvested "babies" off my African violets to give as Christmas gifts this year - and they have tripled in size in the great potting soil and look so good - I can't wait to "gift" them!”Susan S.
“From beginning to end, rePotme has created a customer EXPERIENCE that is superior and delightful. The informative website contained many articles and videos that were extremely helpful to me as an orchid novice. There, I was guided to a potting mix (one of many!) that I wanted to try out. The checkout process was a breeze, and I especially enjoyed the fact that I could sign on with my Amazon account and did not have to create a brand new account” Pauline L.
“I have received my new Carousel Orchid Pot and Saucer in Orange Amber. I love it!! I would like to let you know that before I opened the wrapping to each piece (wrapped separately for those who may read this), rePotme won me over. Not only did I receive it within the expected time frame, your method and precise detail to packing it impressed me the most. It may not seem important to some, but I really appreciated it” Noemia W.
“My order arrived today and not only am I impressed with the speed of delivery, and how carefully it was all packed, but the quality of everything really surpassed my expectations. Between the supplies I ordered and your fantastic website with instructional texts, photos and videos, I feel very confident to move up to the next level of orchid growing” Pauline L.
