Pohinahina - Native (Indigenous)

Awa - Native Milkfish raised by Hawaiians in fishponds

Kalo - Native (Polynesian Introduced)

Awapuhi - Native (Polynesian Introduced)

Awapuhi was used to scent and dye tapa. It was used in a variety of medicines and the flowers were used in lei - although the flowers don't last long!

Kamani - Native (Polynesian Introduced)

Koa - Native (Endemic)

Koa is the tallest tree in Hawaiian flora. It can grow to be over 100 feet tall making it very useful for building and carving. Ancient hawaiians used it for their canoe among many other uses. Food for thought: though koa is a beautiful wood, consider using abundant and invasive trees for carving or buying so that our koa trees can continue to grow and live in their natural habitat.

Milo - Native (Indigenous and possibly Polynesian Introduced)

The tree grows well in sand and rock so it is found by the shoreline. It was used to make beautiful dark purple bowls and calabashes. It was also used as a dye.

Pua Kalaunu - Native (Indigenous and possibly Polynesian Introduced)

The tree was used for bowl and platter making. The leaves were used for dyeing fishing lines. The flowers were used in lei.

Pua Kalaunu - Non-Native

The purple crown flower was a favorite of Queen Liliuokalani and a symbol of her reign.
