Islandlongbow, you're picture of the Ohia tree with Lehua blossoms is beautiful. The flower reminds me of one of my favorite state side trees, the Mimosa.

I wouldn't have one growing in my yard as I don't care for multi-trunked trees but when it's in bloom there aren't many as pretty. I think of flamingos every time I see one in full bloom.

I think you're getting the hang of this picture posting thing. Thanks for sharing with us.

God bless,Mudd

On Oahu most of the population lives around the coast there is plenty of space in the interior    :)

Mud ledgend says if you pick one of these flowers when in the mountians you cause it to rain.
