Estudio del las orquídeas silvestres del sistema ibérico, 754p. A whole flora dedicated to the orchids of Spain.
No doubt the best book edited on the subject, with many infos about pollinating insects, maps, seeds structure, etc.

Yann, belated thanks for providing links to so many useful publications; it is very much appreciated. Thanks to you, I currently reviewing the Flora of Mongolia and wondering whether I should go there next year!

Well if it gives some ideas for futur trips it's great. We now have such free documents available all around the world that exploring it has never been so easy.

Allez back on the roads! Turkey another hot spot for plants. Important Plant Areas in Turkey is a great book for those who want to prepare their road books. 122 areas are described in turkish but the maps, species list and photos give precious details for a successfull trip.

Yann,

Thank you, Yann, this is very interesting.  Most of my own bulb collection comes from South Africa, Australia, China, and the Americas [particularly North America, Chile, Peru, and Brazil]. I have very few bulbs from Europe, or Asia [except China].
I am intereased in exploring European and Asian bulbs that will work into my landscape well.
