Aloha! Actually "pu'a" is flower and "malio" means first rays of light. Both are nice though, aren't they? Again, mahalo for the welcome!

So many types....I am so fortunate to be able to attend the annual orchid show here on the Big Island every year and I purchase many orchids from those growers. The climate here is ideal for most orchids, I just need to get the particular light requirements right for each type and then water them 2-3 times per week, depending on the potting medium I have on each one. They thrive on the trees here too, and I have several in my citrus (dens and cats) and avocado (popcorns) trees. See my list in my profile for some of the types I have and Mahalo for the welcome!

The tag says "Phrag. Eric Young 4N x lindleyanum “Birchwood” AM/AOS". Pretty, huh? The flower is good sized (3 1/2" tall X 4 1/2" wide).
