<p><em><strong>An heiress a tiger an artificial arm a hatbox of stolen orchids</strong>: each one is a vine in the tangle of Opal Morris's life. As she begins to discover how they all connect she will find herself re-evaluating not only her botanical studies but her whole life.</em></p><p> </p><p>Orchidelirium came to be through my adventures in the world of literature. This novella is a celebration of some of my favorite books...and my extensive plant family. As I wrote I gleaned from sources as diverse as H.G. Wells Rudyard Kipling Georgette Heyer and Mary Poppins. Needless to say the process was lots of fun. I look forward to sharing it with readers old and new.</p><p> </p><p> </p>
