Aloha ‘oe / Aloalo Aheahe / Exotic Tropical Hibiscus soft billowing breeze / Ha’iku Maui Hawai’i “On a road outreaching the white clouds, / By a spring outrunning the bluest river, / Petals come drifting on the wind / And the brook is sweet with them all the way. / My quiet gate is a mountain-trail, / And the willow-trees about my cottage / Sift on my sleeve, through the shadowy noon, / Distillations of the sun.” poetry by Liu Shen-hsu Copyright © Sharon Mau 2009 / My images do not belong to the public domain.

All rights reserved Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi / Shooting Date 25 November 2009 It is believed that there are only five species of Hibiscus that originated from Hawai’i. Other species found their origin in Asia and the Pacific islands. In the early twenties, the Hibiscus Brackenbridgei was adopted as the official Territorial flower of Hawai’i. It kept this status throughout the 20th century, but only in 1988 its yellow colour was defined as the official colour for the Hibiscus representing the State of Hawai’i. Before 1988, the official Hibiscus could have any colour. Additionally, it was not until 1988 that the flower could represent the State of Hawai’i, because before that time the territorial status of the group of islands was unclear. Hawai’i’s state flower (Hibiscus rosa-sinensis) originated in Asia and the Pacific islands. Interestingly, it is also the national flower of Malaysia. Research suggests there were originally only five species of the tropical Hibiscus that were native to Hawai’i. Growers began to hybridize these native species with other varieties imported to Hawai’i, which produced the huge kaleidoscope of colours and sizes available today. There are several ways to tell the difference between the tropical and hardy perennial varieties. Tropical hibiscuses have dark green glossy leaves, sporting 3-4 inch flowers that are either single or double in colors of yellow, orange, pink, or red. Also, tropical hibiscus can have blossoms of salmon, orange, yellow, or peach with double flowers. Hardy perennial Hibiscus have foliage of medium-green with leaves that are heart shaped. Their flowers of white, red, or pink are much larger than those of the tropical Hibiscus. Many hibiscus aficionados increase the number of plants they have by using cuttings, a practice known as cloning or asexual reproduction. Select the best tips; look for good leaf color and a robust upright growing stance. Water the plants in the morning before taking the cuttings. Use sterilized shears. Count down about 4 leaf nodes to where the stem starts turning from light green to brown. Make each cut at a 45 degree angle just below a leaf node. Remove the lower leaves from the cutting, as well as any large top leaves. Dip the point of the cutting into a rooting stimulant, and then insert them into the growing medium only as deep as necessary to keep them upright. The cuttings should be fully rooted by the end of 6 weeks, and can then be transplanted. If the cuttings have been rooted in a green house, they should be hardened off before transplanting, by switching them to regular irrigation, and moving them out into the sunlight during the day, and back indoors for the night, for a few days. This is a hardy perennial Hibiscus

I don’t think that’s what we’re really seeking. I think what we’re seeking is an experience of being alive, so that our life experiences on the purely physical plane will have resonances within our own innermost being and reality, so that we actually feel the rapture of being alive.” He Lei no ke Koholā / A Lei for the Whale by Keonaona Kapuni- Reynolds “Ma ka moana nui o ka Pākīpika e noho a ola ana he mau koholā. ‘O ka pilikia ma waena o kēia mau koholā, ‘o ia ho‘i ko lākou makemake i nā mea u‘i a ho‘onaninani i ko lākou kino. ‘O ka mea i ‘ike nui ‘ia ‘o ia ho‘i ka pī‘oe. ‘Ike ‘ia nā koholā he nui wale i ho‘onaninani ‘ia me nā pī‘oe a puni o ko lākou kino.

A ma kēia ‘ohana koholā ‘o ia ke koholā kahiko loa, me ke alaka‘i o ia ‘ohana. In the great big Pacific Ocean lived and dwelled some whales. The only problem between these whales was that they liked to wear beautiful and decorative items on their body. The most common thing seen was the barnacle. / Lots of whales were seen decorated with barnacles all over their bodies. Sometimes different shells were also seen attached to the whales. The richest whale was the one with the most barnacles and seaweed. In this pod of whales it was the eldest whale that was also the leader of the pod. Ua ho‘oholo kēia koholā, inā e makemake ana nā koholā e noho ma kēia ‘ohana, pono lākou e ho‘onaninani i ko lākou kino. ‘A‘ohe koholā ma kēia ‘ohana i kaula‘i ‘ole ‘ia e ka limu a i ‘ole kekahi ‘ohana pī‘oe ma ko lākou kua. Hō ka nui o ka ‘aka‘aka ma ka moana i ka wā i holo ai kēia ‘ohana a puni o ka moana. This whale decided that if the other whales wanted to live in this pod they had to decorate their bodies. There was no whale in the pod who wasn’t decorated with limu and who didn’t house a family of barnacles on his back. There was an immense amount of laughter directed at the pod whenever they went around the ocean. I kekahi lā, ua ‘ōlelo ke alaka‘i, inā ua hiki i kekahi o lākou ke ho‘onaninani aku iā ia iho i ‘oi aku kona u‘i ma muli o ke alaka‘i, e lilo ana ia koholā, i alaka‘i, ‘oiai he koholā kahiko loa ‘o ia.

So everyday one of the whales would try and dress themselves up and parade in front of the leader. There was only one problem; the whale didn’t have a second chance. When the whale lost because he wasn’t more beautiful than the leader he had to leave and live somewhere else. Ma hope o kekahi manawa ua ha‘alele nei ka nui o nā koholā a ua emi mai nei ka nui o nā heluna koholā o kēia ‘ohana. ‘Ōlelo koke kekahi o lākou, inā ‘a‘ole lanakila kekahi o kēia mau keiki e pilikia ana ka ‘ohana a ‘a‘ole e lawa ana ka heluna o kākou e pi‘i hou i uka.

After awhile most of the whales of this pod were leaving. One of them quickly said, if one of these children don’t win the pod wouldn’t have enough numbers to migrate up north. So one of the old woman whales talked to her friends who were the Umaumalei. She asked them to lei her grandson when he parades in front of the leader. The next day when her grandson was swimming in front of the leader, the Umaumalei swam around and formed themselves as a lei around the neck of the whale. It was an Umaumalei lei. The nose of a fish was attached to the tail of another and it continued on in this fashion until the whale was surrounded with glittery fish. There was no comparison to the beauty of the grandson and he won. Ma hope o kekahi manawa, ua ho‘i hou nā koholā i hā‘ule i ke alaka‘i a laila ua holo hou ka ‘ohana i ka ‘ākau me ka palekana. After awhile the whales that lost came back and the family migrated north safely.” Kekahi ‘Ike Hou A‘e / More Information Inoa Hawai‘i: ‘Ōkohekohe, Pī‘oe, Pī‘oe‘oe / Hawaiian Name: ‘Ōkohekohe, Pī‘oe, Pī‘oe‘oe Inoa Pelekānia: Barnacles / English Name: Barnacles Inoa ‘Epekema: Class Cirripedia / Scientific Name: Class Cirripedia Kona ‘ano: Ke makua ka pī‘oe, pili pa‘a lākou i ka pōhaku a i ‘ole kekahi ‘ano mea ma kai no ko lākou ola holo‘oko‘a.

Description: When the pī‘oe is mature it attaches itself to rocks or other things in the sea for their whole life span. The organs and limbs are inside of the shell. If the shell is in bothered, everything goes into the shell and the two shells of the pī‘oe clamp together until it is closed. ‘Ikepili Hoihoi: ‘Oi aku ka pili o ka pī‘oe i ka ‘ohana ‘ōpae ma muli o ka ‘ohana ‘opihi.

When the pī‘oe are babies they look like little shrimp swimming in the water. / Ku’ula Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi / Tv Shutter Speed 1/60 Av / Aperture Value 5.6 ISO 100 / exposure bias F/1.0 / Shutter Speed 1/60 second / Focal Length 28.0mm / Metering Mode: Pattern / f5.6 / White Balance Cloudy
