Hi Kelly. Once again I couldn't stop saying WOW to all the amazing, beautiful blooms. The colours are so vibrant, I'm struggling to find the words to describe them. Thanks you so much for taking us to this nursery, It was such a pleasure to watch the video.

I will take one of everything please. Let’s start with the structure of the greenhouse. 😍😍😍 I love the wood framing. You don’t usually see that here. It’s mostly dome styled or shadehouse squared. The Cattleyas are like a fairytale flower. Unreal. Everything is so so healthy. It’s so cool to get a tour of Carmela’s. We only knew them from their booth at the shows. It makes me very happy to see so many incredible cattleyas being propagated and grown in Hawaii. Honestly I didn’t expect Carmela’s to surprise me cause I figured they would have great stuff. But I am floored. I can not believe how perfect everything looks. And so many varieties. lol!!! Cranberry and Yellow. As soon as you showed it I yelled…mine!😅 This video is a great catalog to order their orchids. I may order a box from them and do a Carmela unboxing. Imagine that unboxing. I would die. 🤩 I love their lab. It’s always so cool to see the process. The ending was perfect. 👌🏼Best video you put out on nursery visits. Thanks. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

I've ordered from Akatsuka before, but I think Carmela will be the next orchid grower that I try from Hawaii. 17:11 I would have bought this one. It's kind of hard to find orange orchids and I gravitate towards them. Too many good choices there. It must be kind of stressful just choosing one or two.

[@orchidsinparadise2438]

@@Joe-nj3bb Aloha Joe! Yes that is a pretty one 😍 I believe I have a few orange cattleyas in my collection. Carmela’s is definitely worth ordering from, they have amazing deals on their website 😊 We do have a lot of great nurseries on the Big Island but most are wholesale only. There’s a way to purchase orchids from some of these other vendors from a nursery on Maui called the Maui Orchid Whisperer. I believe they only sell on Facebook. As soon as I get more information about them, I’ll be sharing it with everyone in a future video. Mahalo for watching 🤙🏽
