Today we stopped back by the
Ali'i Kula Lavender Maui with Gabi and Larry on our way back down from Haleakala. Since the photo's were such a hit last time I wrote about
AKL, I took more today. The textures and colors on all of these are other worldly and boggle my mind. Let's hear it for flowers!
Protea seed pods

Protea leaves

Orchid

Hydrangea


Bromeliad

Manuka

I think this is a form of 'Ilima...? Most I have seen and read about are yellow.
If anyone knows for sure, please let me know.

Hi Conn, John, birthday girl Gabi and Larry!
Looks like the flower from a Flowering Maple or Abutilon. From the Malva (Hibiscus)family. I had a beautiful big bush of it in the Austin yard. Really beautiful! Hummers love it!

we always hear some of the jungle dwellers on Maui say that Aliens live up in the crater of Haleakala....now we know they brought their plants with them!
