Byodo-In Temple Orchid During our walk around the Byodo-In Temple, we went to an upper garden area where we found this beautiful Byodo-In Temple orchid. I just love the colors! From the Oahu archives

Big island hibiscus I’m not exactly sure where I took this photo, but I believe it was while wandering around the yard in our rental house on the Big Island. This beautiful orange and red combination is one reason hibiscus are among my favorite flowers! From the Big island archives
