Akökö
of Lelekea, south Maui, 1994. These were growing as big shrubs along the roadside until
the (stupid) county bulldozed them - they were not threatening the road.
Hinahina kuahiwi, Wailea hotel, 1994
Kokio ulaula, Wailau Valley, 1990. It's still there, under Big Mango Tree. I
was lucky to see it bloom. I cleared away big mango's dangerous branches from over it. It
grows precariously over the stream's steep bank.
