Kaimuki Orchid Society Show

It’s orchid show season in Hawaii and the wife and I took a little drive out to Aina Haina today to gawk at the beautiful flowers on display at the Kaimuki Orchid Society Show.
Unlike some of the other shows we’ve gone to, this one featured creations from members of the Kaimuki club only. And that was just fine with us; the show was smaller and more intimate giving everyone a good chance to rub shoulders.
The show continues on Sunday at Aina Haina Elementary School on West Hind Drive. It’s easy to find as the club has posted directional signs all over the place.
As usual, I took a passel of pictures to moon over later.
Here are some of the winners:
Best in Show: Gram. Scriptum V. Citrinium

Best Other Color Cattleya: Waianae Leopard

Best White Dendrobium: White Fairy x Burana White

Best Phalaenopsis: Ching Hua Fair "Red Flash"

Best Paphiopedelum: Lemon Lime

Best Vanda: R. Masao Yamada
I wonder when the next orchid show is scheduled? Gotta make sure I don't miss it.
