Loulu : the Hawaiian palm

documentary heritage
  • Description

    "The only native palms in Hawai'i, loulu are among the Islands' most distinctive plants. Several of the 24 recognized species are rare and endangered and all make handsome and appropriate ornamentals to adorn gardens and landscapes with their dramatic foliage, colorful flower clusters, and conspicuous fruits.

    In this volume, Donald Hodel shares his expertise on loulu, having traveled extensively throughout Hawai'i to research and photograph nearly all the species in their native habitat. In the course of his work, he described and named three loulu that were new to science."--Inside dust jacket.
