Shooting Stars at Sunrise!
The heavenly beauty of the crater at sunrise is why ancient Hawaiians believed this area of the mountaintop was the 'realm of the gods', or 'wao akua'. #haleakala

How visually striking is an illuminated, iridescent Māmaki leaf, with its prominent colorful veins and mosaic-like patterns. 🍃
Māmaki is Hawai'i’s own herbal “tea” plant in the “nettle” (Urticaceae) family. Fortunately it lacks the stingers found on European nettles.
Throughout Hawai'i, different islands have their own varieties with various vein colors and leaf shapes, thickness and colors. As many of our akamai (clever) followers note, the māmaki varieties we grow were found in our region of Haleakalā thanks to @mauinativenursery and others). Māmaki is one of several plants (including ‘awa, ko'oko'olau, and noni) used in traditional Hawaiian herbal medicine, la’au lapa'au.
Māmaki also has long standing uses in kānaka maoli (Native Hawaiian) culture beyond tea– its leaves, branches and wood being made into kapa cloth as well as into various tools (** we welcome your comments on other uses Māmaki outside of the tea realm 🤗). We’re sure others will be interested to learn more about this incredible plant.

We are working to transform this area from the takeover of invasive species like eucalyptus and reforest the land to 100% native Hawaiian flora. Learn more about this project on our Skyline Conservation Initiative page!
