They have beautiful orchids on display year round and is also home to a very rare plant. A plant that is actually listed as endangered by the IUCN. The corpse plant, only blooms every few years and the blooms only last two to three days. My mom and I went to see this rare plant but unfortunately it had already started closing. It was in full bloom on Saturday July 20,2024. We missed it this time but we still got to see some beautiful orchids. Hope you all enjoy the video.

@@renatecormick7399 Aloha Renate! You are so very welcomed 😊 I actually lost focus a few times because I was so taken by the beauty of some of those cattleyas 😍 Beautiful orchids are definitely my weakness 😂 This Friday I will be heading over to Hilo to attend the Hilo Orchid Show and I’m expecting to see some amazing orchids 😍 I’m hoping I can get some good videos to share with all of you when I get back. Mahalo for watching 🤙🏽
Gorgeous blooms Kelly 🎉🎉❤, thank you for sharing.

Beautiful Botanical Garden, wow some of those Orchids are out of this World, Thank you Kelly for the wonderful visit.😊
@@nancytorricella4040 Aloha Nancy! Oh yes I fell in love with several. They were so pretty 😍 I was told they change them out almost daily, as the flowers fade they replace them with fresh blooms. I think I need to go more often! Mahalo for watching 🤙🏽
Aloha Kelly! Thank you for taking us along, this is a lovely botanical garden.
@@Orchids365 Aloha Roxy! You’re very welcome. Mahalo for watching 🤙🏽
Hi Kelly! What a great place to visit. I love the stone sculptures in the beginning. Great incorporating with the botanical surroundings. I would have loved to be there during the ripe moments of the corpses flower. We have one here at Fairchilds Botanical Gardens. The cattleyas are out of this world. I noticed they’re all indoors. I’ve learned the key to healthy Cattleyas is to control the water. Outdoors too much rain can immediately rot them. I loved the giant leopard Grammatophyllum. The grams do so well there. Conservatories are best for orchids. The giant tree is also known as an elephant foot tree. Great video. 💚
@@naturenel Aloha Nelson! Yes this garden has so much going on and the orchids are so beautiful 😍 The guy who owns them is a master orchid grower and some of those cattleyas, he created. The one that I fell in love with is named after his grandfather.
“Ripe” sounds like the perfect word to describe the smell of that corpse flower when it’s in full bloom. I’m hoping I don’t miss it the next time it blooms. Again not looking forward to smelling it, but I would love to see the flower. Mahalo for watching 🤙🏽
Wow! Kelly that garden was spectacular!! My fav was the huge Tenebrosa! I have a little one. I can’t wait for it to bloom. Thank you for sharing!
@@Melissa-loves-orchids Aloha Melissa! I had to google Tenebrosa 😂 But yes that one was gorgeous 😍 Mahalo for watching 🤙🏽
That was a beautiful walk through the 13.5 acre Foster Botanical Gardens on Honolulu. The Lc. Dorothy Warne 'favorite' is a beautiful example of fragrant pink sepals with magenta flared petals and lip. You might be able to purchase it from Carmela Orchids. Safe travels to the Hilo Orchids Society Show & Sale. Respectfully,
@@dsiegel22 Aloha Debbie! I fell in love with several of the cattleyas 😍 I’m hoping to find some on Friday at the Hilo Orchid Show 😊 Mahalo for watching 🤙🏽
OMG, what a beautiful place, and the orchids growing between the foliage makes it more tropical. Kelly, I want the same ones you do, my god , they were beautiful. Think Jeremy would have some of these? That tree, wonder how old it is? Thank you for a great tour.😍😍😍😍
@@lindagrabner4186 Aloha Linda! The guy who owns most of these orchids has a private nursery in Waimanalo. But I was told he sells at a farmers market every first Saturday of the month. So next week Saturday I plan on paying him a visit 😂 I don’t think Jeremy has any of these but I am going to the Hilo Orchid Show tomorrow so if I see any I’ll let you know. A lot of the vendors that will be there do ship so that’ll work. And that tree must be at least 100 years old right? It was massive! Glad you enjoyed the video and I’ll update you soon. Aloha 🤙🏽
There is one here in MO. BOTANICAL GARDENS !!!!!😊
@@teresawingbermuehle4212 Have you seen it in bloom? I was two days too late this time but I’m hoping the next time I’ll see it in full bloom.
Hug the tree for Luck !!!!😊

15:39 Used Google Lens to try to identify it and it may be the Rlc. Memoria Charles Mitamura 'Kaleidoscope.'
21:26 Laelia tenebrosa
30:09 Maybe its some kind of amethystoglossa because of the spotting on the petals.
@@Joe-nj3bb Mahalo Joe! I’ll make sure to google those names. I’m going to the Hilo Orchid Show tomorrow so I’m hoping I’ll see some of the ones that I want there 🤞
Gorgeous blooms Kelly 🎉🎉❤, thank you for sharing.
