Just wanted to tell you all about John's website --
http://www.geocities.com/cattleyasource/
It's all about cattleya orchids and he's put a lot of work into it over the past two years. It has lots of beautiful prints and graphics of the different cattleya species orchids and tons of information that he's compiled from many sources.
And he's putting together a reprint of an 1800s orchid book "Orchids of Mexico and Guatamala." It's from a Victorian-era expedition to discover new and rare orchids. It's pretty much for the most dedicated of Cattleya enthusiasts, but it's neat to watch John working on it. He has to edit all of the pictures and text for the digital age and work through the nomenclature changes since the 1800s.
