I have pictures of several plants from Kauai I don't know. Here's the first, it was a small landscaping shrub, the flowers were large, about two inches across.

That looks right, or at least closely related. Thanks!
The next one was a large banana-looking plant.

I didn't get a very good picture of number 3, but it was common along the roadsides so I hope someone will recognize it.

Number 4 was some kind of orchid I think, no leaves, only the flower stalk was left.

I thought the last one was maybe Pinus patula, but I'm not even sure it's a true pine?
