Hawaii has it all!

Recommended Posts

Ahhh Hawaii!  Seems you can grow almost anything there thanks to its varrying climates depending on location and elevation on each island.

 Let see some Pics of those Hawaiian palms and exotics! Here are some that I took.

It’s the best place in the world to grow palms and tropical plants (but I might be a little biased!). Here’s a couple from my yard and around the island.

Definitely looks like a nice tropical paradise. Hopefully one day when Australians can leave Australia post-covid will come for visit.

Wow! What Pritchardia stand is that @AlohaJen?

It’s along the fence of my backyard. Not sure of the variety, but it’s right outside my kitchen window and love seeing them everyday.

These look like Pritchardia pacifica or possibly thurstonii.  I can't see any inflorescence.

Got married on the Big Island.  By far my favourite thanks to its diversity and size!

Third one from left they are tucked in close to trunk. Definitely pacificas.  Nice batch of them.

I spy Pua'ena point from Ali'i beach park, and Shark's cove... Gotta love the NS!

Fifth picture down on the above post has to be taken at the Lyon Arboretum and the Roystonea oleracea.  I got a seedling 20+ years ago and it's only about 1/3 the size of those in the picture.  I was so impressed when I first saw them in person.
