Guest gem Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 I think people just simply call this orchid Tiger. Not very common, harder to cultivate, likes partly shade, beautiful and expensive. John, these orchids are so exotic, makes me wanna go to the island to see them. The one that I've been wanting to see is the Vanilla orchid with the beans hanging on the vines. It's said it's native to Asia but I have not seen one before. Have you come across an orchid in vine while you were in Hawaii? I think it also grow in Fiji or Tahiti. I've seen a documentary once on how labor intensive it is to dry the beans so it produce wonderful aroma - vanilla. Quote

Moderators Denise Posted June 12, 2008 Moderators Posted June 12, 2008 Quote: Hi Denise! Yes, I flew over there May 5 to 15 to visit two of my kids and my daughter's 4 children! Of course while there I had to adventure out and see the island, and in that process, I got the pictures I've been posting recently on this thread. Glad you like the pics! Thank you. By the way, those recipes for salad dressing were delicious. I especially like the Italian one. Give Norman my best regards and tell him not to be such a stranger around here. I know he must be working hard and putting a lot of time in at his new job. Hope he's really enjoying it. Hi Jim! I am really enjoying those pics! Hawaii looks so so beautiful! Thanks for sharing them with us, now I have a closer look at how Hawaii looks like. I am glad you enjoyed the salad recipes! My favorite one is the one made with cashews. My son likes the Italian one too. Norman tells me to say hello to you, he's been very busy at his new self-employed job...he wants you to check out his website by clicking here Quote Be Kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another...
