Hey in Bonaire, Netherlands Antilles, we have that tree and its called "palu di Brasil"(tree of Brazil). and there is a group of them on a hill and every year its an amazing sight those trees in bloom. Now i know why its called Palu di Brasil. I tried googling a pic but could not find a single one

Thats so cool! We have those trees here in Hawaii (along with a lot of wild critters from Brazil too!) and they really are amazing to see when blooming. I'm also amazed that you climbed that huge tree just to plant an orchid!! Now that's dedication!
