Mahalo nui loa (thank you very much) to the Hawai’i Bromeliad Society’s entire membership and their supportive friends, vendors, and families for hosting the 21^st World Bromeliad conference “Bromeliads in Paradise.” The event was a success due to their effort, dedication, and support. With the considerable help of BSI affiliates from around the world and under the guidance of Vice President Bonnie Boutwell, BSI members were able to share their love for bromeliads, educate, and just have a great time!
