I noticed, however, UH campus doesn’t have many ohi’a trees. I know there are some in the agricaulture building court yard, on the side of the English Dept building (the yellow flowers), which looked sick when I saw them. People don’t know ohi’a. Ohi’a should interest people first of all. I would like to send a beautiful ohi’a picture from my collection, but I don’t know how. There is a prominent Japanese novelist, who loved Hawaii and published a book entitled “Hawai’i Kikou” . The book includes a little story about ohi’a. Ohi’a can be wonderful material to develop modern Hawaii literature and art.
