Hi there! I'm glad you enjoy the pictures! I can't claim all the credit though. We have an ideal climate for orchids here. It's incredibly humid. In fact, when I bought the purple cattleya from a Taiwanese importer, he told me I'd have to change the potting medium cos the moss would be too damp in Singapore. Most people here use fern root slabs or even bricks or charcoal. I'm sure it's similar in Hawaii. I've never been there, but I've always loved looking at pictures of it.
This is the latest shot of the cattleya. It's a little dark because I took it at 6am.
