This book inspired the movie "Adaptation"

Although somewhat dry in parts, a good examination of the Florida orchid culture - who knew that these fanatics were out there?? These guys have as big an obsession as any Star Trek or NASCAR fan - although I'm pretty sure they'd look down their noses at either of them.
