    Wow. Nice job of blooming. Well done.

    Wow. A winner. You should have brought the plant to the general membership meeting.

    Good job of growing and blooming. Your next bloom should have multiple flowers. Very nice.

    Hi Cameron. We have many members who have imported orchids from California. The experience has been generally good as long as the nursery who you are purchasing from is certified and has experience with shipping to Hawaii. I have not personally ordered orchids recently from the mainland but my understanding is that when the shipment arrives in Hawaii, you will have to pick the box up from the airline’s cargo office and transport the box unopened to the State Department of Agriculture at Sand Island where it will be opened and inspected. If the paperwork that accompanies the shipment is in order and the plants are disease free, you can take the box with plants home with you. If the paperwork is not in order and/or the plants have issues (insect infestation, fungus virus, etc.), then you have a problem. If you want to speak to someone who recently ordered plants from California, email me at melwaki@gmail.com and I’ll see if I can connect you with that person.

    Very nice. Is this one you got from the Society’s group purchase?

    Very nice. This cross will give a nice head of flowers as the plant grows older. In many cases there will be multiple heads of flowers.

    Oh wow! Very nice. That’s a lot of flowers. Should have brought it for judging.

    Very nice Shu. Very attractive. Thanks for sharing. I like the name too — Sweet Talk.

    Keep trying. I want to see the photo of the flowers. You were one of lucky ones to get this rare yellow form of Why Not.

    You received a nice Zygo. Did you pick this or was it one of the random give-always at the banquet?

    Very nice. Wish mine bloomed like yours. I especially like the striping on the flowers.

    Thanks for sharing. Great that you were able to rebloom the plant. With all those buds, you will have flowers in bloom for months.

    Thanks for sharing. Awesome.
