Growing Hawaii’s Native Plants:

A Simple Step-by-Step Approach for Every Species

By Kerin Lilleeng-Rosenberger

 

Growing native plants is becoming a popular practice in Hawaii’s gardens, hotels and park landscapes. Growing Hawaii’s Native Plants is a one-stop reference work for scientists and nursery owners, conservationists and backyard gardeners alike. It contains an extensive, thoroughly researched entry for each of the 1,104 true existing native Hawaiian plant species. For each entry there is a species description, information on provenance, growing methods, germination rates, pest and disease control and most importantly, directions for outplanting. Included are more than 400 high-quality color images and a forward by renowned botanist Sir Ghillean Prance, former director of the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew and current scientific director of the Eden Project.
