HAWAI‘I IS HOME TO A MULTITUDE of historic and cultural sites, attractions, cultural festivals, concerts, craft fairs, athletic events, and farmers’ markets. While some are enjoyed primarily by residents, we think they can also provide excitement for visitors. Others are among the islands’ best kept secrets, unknown not only to travelers but even to many who live here. This guide is a brief introduction to Hawai‘i’s endless variety of special events and off-the-beaten path attractions, offered to our visitor stakeholders for informational purposes only. It should not be interpreted as a recommendation of any specifi c activity or attraction or be seen an endorsement of any organization. There’s so much more to Hawai‘i than one can imagine!

  • Bodhi Trees Around the World: Hawaii – Foster Botanical Garden by Ven
    Bodhi Trees Around the World: Hawaii – Foster Botanical Garden by Ven. Ayya Vimala, Sri Lanka Vihara, Hawaii, Honolulu For the tourist in Hawaii, here in Honolulu, one can find amazingly numerous free magazines like Oahu, 100 Things To Do, and This Week. Several of the most famous attractions are diverse open-air shopping malls with ocean views, Punchbowl Crater Cemetery , Aloha Tower at the Harbor and Arizona Memorial. A less great attraction but not less of interest is right in the city, a garden, called Foster Botanical Garden (FBG), not too small but also not that big, but beautiful. Although on my first visit, I had my first shelter, so to say, around the corner, I found it of not too much interest for me as I have been visiting the maybe largest Botanical Garden in the world, which is the Peradeniya Botanical Garden , at Peradeniya-Kandy, in Sri Lan ka . Just to go through one would need the whole day, not having to much time to enjoy the very beautiful different sections, especially the several kinds of Bamboo. One great attraction is the giant Jawa Willow Tree, shading an area of over 1,900 sq.m. Yet, recently I became very interested in the FBG, hearing from friends that there is a Bodhi-Tree, which of course aroused my interest to visit one day the Garden. And, there is a great story behind connected to Sri Lanka . It is the story of Mrs. Mary Mikahala Foster and Anagarika Dharmapala. A part of her residential property was first designed as a garden with some indigenous Flora and ornamental plants.

DEFILIPPS Introduction To plant conservationists who must fervently gather botanical intelligence against a time-frame of rapidly dwindling plant populations and habitats, the following statements expressed by M.-H. Sachet and F.R. Fosberg (1955, 1971) are both pertinent and self-explanatory: "The great unsolved problem of modern scientific methodology is that of bibliography, that of knowing what has been accomplished already. In starting any line of investigation the scientist is faced with the choice of ignoring his predeces- sors, possibly wasting much time on work that has already been done and missing valuable information and ideas, or of spending a large proportion of his time in study of current and past literature on the field.

  • Cacao in HI 1831 -2017
    Your presentation title Cacao in Hawaii: 1831 to 2017 H.C. Skip Bittenbender Tropical Plant and Soil Sciences College of Tropical Agriculture and Human Resources University of Hawaii at Mānoa [email protected] 1831 German botanist Franz J. F. Meyen observed Guatemalan Cocoa in June 1831 in the garden of Don Marin, an assistant to King Kamehameha I. Cited in Kenneth Nagatas brilliant Early Plant Introductions to HawaiiHawaiian Journal of History, Volume 19, 1985. 1850 to 1905 1850 Dr. Hillebrand re-introduced cacao into Honolulu (Foster Botanical Garden) 1890s Crick and Hitchcock start plantings in Hilo, Hawaii island 1905 Hawaii Experiment Station (predecessor to CTAHR) made 3 acre planting near Hilo 1914 to 1918 - World War I Disrupted shipping raised world cocoa prices 1917 HI legislature asks Hawaii Experiment Station to comment: – Target yield of 600 lbs/acre/ yr of dried seed – Make cocoa or chocolate to compete with low cost producer countries – Locate farms near sea level, in moist, sheltered areas of Hilo, Puna, Hana Post World War I Cocoa prices dropped after the war. Interest waned in Hawaii. Plantings were abandoned. Research ceased. Post World War II CTAHRs Dean commented in 1956: We know it grows in Hilo, Kona, and Hana plus no major diseases here. Someone needs to grow 10 acres for 10 years and well know if its profitable. UH Horticulture Professor RA Hamilton said in 1965: “There does not appear to be any logical basis for expecting cacao to develop into a useful tree crop for Hawaii in the foreseeable future.” High labor costs, lack of suitable land, constant trade winds and fluctuating dry bean prices means its unlikely to be successful.
