While in O'ahu we visited the Ho-omaluhia Botanical Garden (Kaneohe). It is well worth a day's visit if you are on that island. We packed a lunch, hiked the trails, enjoyed most of a day there. They have a great interpretive center with enthusiastic volunteers. Then there's the 400 acres to roam around.
This photo is of the blooms on the tree Leguminosae, Saraca thaipingenus. We were told that the flowers were used to dye monk's gowns.
