The Orchid Isle

ORCHIDS

The Big Island of Hawai'i is also known as the Orchid Isle. The other major Islands also have names; Kaua'i is the Garden Isle, O'Ahu is the Gathering Place, Maui is the Valley Isle, Moloka'i and Lana'i are known as the Magic Isles.



While there are many different orchids that are grown on the Big Island of Hawai'i, there is a wild orchid called the Bamboo Orchid that grows everywhere on the island. This flower is very common in the Puna district where the rainfall and soil conditions are perfect for growing these rare flowers.



There are so many different varieties of Orchids to marvel at here on the Big Island of Hawai'i that it has spawned huge farms where nothing but Orchids are grown and delivered worldwide.

Such colors and styles are unmatched anywhere in the world and anyone visiting the Orchid Isle should take time to visit these places. The flowers that surrounds the island like a Lei is truly something to behold.
