We traded water things for their dry-land counterparts. This is Hawaii's showy native Hibiscus.
Hawaii has about 4 plants that are native to the islands. Everything else is brought over. These are some amazingly huge 4ft tall non-native Bromeliads.
Lisa under a Ficus. Shortly after having her dreams dashed as she learned that there in fact ARE mosquitoes on Hawaii. Many, as it turns out.
Albizia. I could not get enough of them. Enormous. I'm expecting one the mail any day. Those flat rate boxes can hold a surprising quantity.
Brownea macrophylla. Winter is Not the blooming season in Hawaii, but a couple flowers were open.
The hillside.
