Saturday, January 10, 9:30AM: ‘Ōhi‘a Lehua. Join NPS rangers on a guided hike to learn about the vital role of ‘ōhi‘a lehua in native Hawaiian forests, the many forms of the ‘ōhi‘a tree, and the threat of a new fungal disease, Rapid ‘Ōhi‘a Death.

HPPA's Dylan was walking in Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park after work when this bright crimson ʻōhiʻa lehua stopped him in his tracks. Fortunately he's a pretty good photographer, too. That moss! So windswept!

There is something about that contrast between the delicate, bursting crimson and that shining, textured black lava.

The ʻōhiʻa lehua tree grows from the sea level to about 8,000 feet in altitude, and can be shrubby or stately. Seeds are tiny & easily carried on the wind. It can sprout from a rock crack & is one of the first plants to colonize new lava flows. Other plants begin to grow in its shade.

Itʻs the ʻōhiʻa lehua bloom season!
I couldn't take my eyes off this beautiful deep orange ʻōhiʻa lehua tree on the rim of Kīlauea Caldera.

🌺 HPPA's Pete likes to hike in HVNP and indulge his photography side when he's not holding our Pu‘uhonua o Hōnaunau National Historical Park visitor center park store together. He calls this simply: ʻŌhiʻa blooms in the rain 🌧️.

It never ceases to amaze us how a tiny ‘ōh’ia seed blown into a crack on an inhospitable lava field can become a beautiful, strong, blossom-laden tree. 😍
