This lovely Hibiscus is endemic to the Hawaiian Islands and is blooming in soft rain on Maui in midday natural light on Lower Nahiku landing. Hibiscus arnottianus A. Gray – / kokiʻo keʻokeʻo (“kokiʻo that is white like the shine of silver”) / is an endemic species of Hibiscus with white flowers. / Three subspecies are recognized: / H. arnottianus arnottianus found in the Waiʻanae Range of western Oʻahu; / H. a. immaculatus which is very rare (listed as endangered) on Molokaʻi; / and H. a. punaluuensis from the Koʻolau Range on Oʻahu. / Perhaps only a dozen plants of H. a. immaculatus exist in nature in mesic and wet forests. This species is closely related to H. waimeae, and the two are among the very few members of the genus with fragrant flowers. Sometimes planted as an ornamental or crossed with H. rosa-sinensis. In the Hawaiian language the white hibiscus is known as the Pua Aloalo. Alternative Botanical Names: / Hibiscus immaculatus / Hibiscus punaluuensis Common Names: / Koki’o ke’oke’o / Hau hele / Hawaiian White Hibiscus / Koki’o kea / Hawaiian White Hibiscus / Pamakani Hibiscus arnottianus is a shrub or small tree generally 15 to 20 feet in height though a few individuals will grow to 30 feet tall. These specimens can be up to 20 feet in diameter. Individual plants vary in appearance from open and airy to compact. The leaves are oval with a smooth upper surface and smooth or slightly toothed edges. The leaves are 4 to 6 inches long and often have red veins and stems. / The single white flowers are pinwheel shaped, up to 4 inches across, and borne at the ends of the branches. The staminal column is pink to red (except in subspecies immaculatus which has a white column). The flowers may be slightly pink or may age to pale pink, and are slightly fragrant. In cultivation, Hibiscus arnottianus blooms almost continuously. Three subspecies are recognized. Subspecies arnottianus from O’ahu has smooth leaves 1 1/2 to 4 inches long. Subspecies immaculatus is native to Moloka’i and has a white staminal column and leaves with rounded teeth. Subspecies punaluuensis is also native to O’ahu. It is robust with leaves 4 to 10 inches long. (Criley 1998; Criley 1999; Koob 1998; Rauch 1997; Wagner 1990) Hibiscus arnottianus is a Hawaiian endemic plant with one endangered subspecies. It is native to the moist and wet forests of the mountains of Moloka’i and O’ahu. Subspecies arnottianus grows at elevations of 390 to 2500 feet in the Wai’anae and eastern Ko’olau mountains of O’ahu. Subspecies immaculatus is extremely rare and grows in a few valleys on Moloka’i. Subspecies punaluuensis grows in the Ko’olau Mountains at elevations of 650 to 2200 feet. (Wagner 1990) Hibiscus arnottianus is easy to grow from fresh seed, but it hybridizes easily and the seedlings may differ from the parent plant. Hibiscus arnottianus grow easily from semi-hardwood cuttings. Cuttings 4 to 6 inches long and less than 1/2 inch in diameter should be made from healthy branches without flower buds. Hibiscus arnottianus can be air layered. Use standard air layer technique on a branch that is about 1 inch in diameter. Bornhorst recommends selecting a branch that is growing upright and making the air layer between 1 and 2 feet from the tip of the branch. / To start a plant by air layering, remove the bark and cambium from a 1 inch wide ring of bark. Apply a rooting hormone to the cut surface and cover this with a layer of damp sphagnum moss. Wrap the moss in plastic being sure to secure the ends where it wraps around the branch. The air layer should be ready to remove from the parent plant in 3 to 5 months. Bornhorst (1996) suggests that root systems from air-layered plants are not as vigorous as those produced by other techniques. (Bornhorst 1991; Bornhorst 1996; Koob 1998) Hibiscus arnottianus can easily be grafted. Use a rootstock of the common red, pink waterfall, double pink, or of the cultivar ‘Peachglow.’ Most grafting techniques will work. The scion (the piece of the desired plant that will be attached to the rootstock) should be 3 to 4 inches long with 2 to 4 nodes. Cut the scion from branches that are semi-mature; both tips and stem sections work well for scion wood. Bornhorst (1991) recommends either wedge or side wedge grafting techniques.

Exotic tropical Aloalo / Beautiful Hibiscus / Waihe’e Maui Hawai’i “Perfect instants: / fervent, fleeting, pungent, / wisps of time / dispelled by touch. The instant / of winding; / of warmth at the core / curling and swelling. The instant / of being wound in smooth, / sliding, hardening coils. The instant / of roused flesh / ruffled, / magnetized.

All rights reserved Beautiful Art and Greeting Cards For Sale ~ Shop securely and view my collection here I adore this particular variety of Plumeria, it is the most beautiful I have seen on the island. I took this image, along with several hundred others, as it was raining, a wonderful light misty gentle rain, and the soft natural colours in midday light are enchanting. I brought home a cutting for my garden. At this time I have collected five varieties of the lovely Plumeria here on Maui, and of them all, this one is my favourite. It is so beautiful. Slight adjustments in Curves to set the White Balance and a final adjustment in Contrast. Natural colours, it is a gorgeous tree. “Plumeria, common name Frangipani; syn. Himatanthus Willd. ex Roem. & Schult.) is a small genus of 7-8 species native to tropical and subtropical Americas. The genus consists of mainly deciduous shrubs and trees. It produces flowers ranging from yellow to pink depending on form or cultivar. From Mexico and Central America, Plumeria has spread to all tropical areas of the world, especially Hawai`i, where it grows so abundantly that many people think that it is indigenous here. The genus, originally spelled Plumiera, is named in honour of the seventeenth-century French botanist Charles Plumier, who traveled to the New World documenting many plant and animal species. The common name “Frangipani” comes from an Italian noble family, a sixteenth-century marquess of which invented a plumeria-scented perfume. In Mexico, the Nahuatl (Aztec language) name for this plant is “cacalloxochitl” which means “crow flower.” It was used for many medicinal purposes such as salves and ointments. Depending on location, many other common names exist: “Kembang Kamboja” in Indonesia, “Temple Tree” or “Champa” in India, “Kalachuchi” in the Philippines, “Araliya” or “Pansal Mal” in Sri Lanka, “Champa” in Laos, “Lantom” or “Leelaawadee” in Thai. Many English speakers also simply use the generic name “plumeria”. In several Pacific islands, such as Tahiti, Fiji, Hawai`i, Tonga and the Cook Islands Plumeria is used for making leis. In modern Polynesian culture, it can be worn by women to indicate their relationship status – over the right ear if seeking a relationship, and over the left if taken. P. alba is the national flower of Nicaragua and Laos, where it is known under the local name “Sacuanjoche” (Nicaragua) and “Champa” (Laos). Information Source: Wikipedia The beautiful Plumeria comes in a wide variety of delightful colours and bloom virtually year round. Plumeria (Frangipani) also known as the Lei flower, is native to warm tropical areas of the Pacific Islands, Caribbean, South America and Mexico. Plumerias may grow to be large shrubs or even small trees in the Hawaiian Islands and in mild areas of the U.S on the mainland. In tropical regions, Plumeria may reach a height of 30’ to 40’ and half as wide. They have widely spaced thick succulent branches, round or pointed, long leather, fleshy leaves in clusters near the branch tips. Plumeria are true tropical flowering trees, also known as Frangipani or the Temple Tree, and the fragrant flowers are often used to make Hawaiian leis. They may be grown in containers, in the ground, or in containers sunk in the ground. During the months of active growth, ample sun, water and food are essential. Healthy plumeria will bloom regularly and abundantly when they receive at least 6 to 8 hours of full sun per day. They are heavy feeders and will bloom and grow vigorously with enough of the proper foods. Plumeria love lots of water, but cannot tolerate wet feet, so they must be planted in fast draining soil or in beds with adequate drainage. The fragrance is wonderful with hints of jasmine. This lovely beauty is blooming near the Taro fields of Ke’anae Peninsula, Maui Hawai’i. Canon EOS DIGITAL REBEL XTi / Shooting Date 07 June 2009

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.
