Description

An interesting sight on the way to the East End of Moloka'i is this tropical flower farm. The focal point is a large hothouse, more than three-quarters of a century old, which is filled with orchids of various kinds and colors. The rest of the farm, which spans a little less than 10 acres, grows dozens of species of exotic tropical blooms. Torch ginger, plumeria and several varieties of heliconia are on site.
