post, I escaped our Kawamoto visit without any plant purchases because I just don&#8217;t have space for <a href=\"http:\/\/www.aboutorchids.com\/blog\/category\/warm-growers\/\">warm growers<\/a>, like the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.aboutorchids.com\/identify\/orchids\/cattleya.html\">Cattleyas<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.aboutorchids.com\/identify\/orchids\/vanda.html\">Vandas<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.aboutorchids.com\/identify\/orchids\/dendrobium.html\">Dendrobiums<\/a> above. I neglected to point out that Kawamoto also has many more temperature-tolerant varieties. Many\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.aboutorchids.com\/blog\/category\/intermediate-growers\/\">intermediate growers<\/a>, like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.aboutorchids.com\/blog\/2010\/03\/28\/mmmm-coconut\/\">the Coconut Orchid<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.aboutorchids.com\/identify\/orchids\/epidendrum.html\">Epidendrum<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.aboutorchids.com\/blog\/2009\/04\/18\/zygopetalum\/\">Zygo<\/a> below, don&#8217;t need as much warmth. They can grow well for orchid lovers who don&#8217;t have a greenhouse or tropical conditions. I still don&#8217;t have room for any more myself, but they certainly are great as heralds of spring.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.aboutorchids.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/Maxillariella_tenuifolia_800px.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-14713\" alt=\"Coconut Orchid, Maxillariella tenuifolia, at Kawamoto Orchids\" src=\"http:\/\/www.aboutorchids.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/Maxillariella_tenuifolia_800px-128x85.jpg\" width=\"128\" height=\"85\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.aboutorchids.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/Maxillariella_tenuifolia_800px-128x85.jpg 128w, http:\/\/www.aboutorchids.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/Maxillariella_tenuifolia_800px-300x199.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.aboutorchids.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/Maxillariella_tenuifolia_800px.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 128px) 100vw, 128px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.aboutorchids.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/Epidendrum_hybrid_800px.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-14712\" alt=\"Epidendrum hybrid\" src=\"http:\/\/www.aboutorchids.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/Epidendrum_hybrid_800px-128x96.jpg\" width=\"128\" height=\"96\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.aboutorchids.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/Epidendrum_hybrid_800px-128x96.jpg 128w, http:\/\/www.aboutorchids.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/Epidendrum_hybrid_800px-300x225.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.aboutorchids.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/Epidendrum_hybrid_800px.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 128px) 100vw, 128px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.aboutorchids.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/Zygopetalum_hybrid_800px.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-14707\" alt=\"Zygopetalum hybrid at Kawamoto Orchids\" src=\"http:\/\/www.aboutorchids.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/Zygopetalum_hybrid_800px-128x96.jpg\" width=\"128\" height=\"96\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.aboutorchids.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/Zygopetalum_hybrid_800px-128x96.jpg 128w, http:\/\/www.aboutorchids.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/Zygopetalum_hybrid_800px-300x225.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.aboutorchids.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/Zygopetalum_hybrid_800px.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 128px) 100vw, 128px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today spring starts in San Francisco with a cool rain, but it&#8217;s easy to warm up with more photos from our recent\u00a0Hawaii trip.
