Leisha Lang - Liam Payne
For five decades, one man has dedicated his life to tracking, studying, and protecting the wild orchids of the Isle of Wight. But this is more than a book about orchids—it is about devotion, a labour of love, and a lifetime’s achievement.
At its heart is the story of Stephen Oakes-Monger, fondly known as “The Orchid Man”, whose passion for these rare and beautiful flowers has shaped his life and relationships. It is a journey of connection—between uncle and nephew, between a man and a woman drawn together by a love of the natural world, and between kindred spirits met on his orchid trail.
Beyond discovery and documentation, this is also the story of a tireless campaigner. Stephen has fought to save Isle of Wight orchids from habitat destruction, roadside cutting, and neglect. His work stands as a testament to the power of one person’s dedication to protecting something fragile, fleeting, and extraordinary.
With vivid descriptions and photography, expert insights, and a deep well of personal experience, this book provides a guide to the island’s orchids and the dedication of a man who has spent a lifetime pursuing them.
