KOKI'O KE'OKE'O

Koki'o ke'oke'o  (white hibiscus) is a native Hawaiian flower endemic to the forests and wetlands of Molokai and Oahu.

Once gracing the land in abundance it is now feared that this plant and flower is doomed to early extinction, as in many places where it was plentiful a few years ago, not a single plant is now to be seen partly do to the ravage of cattle, goats, and to the changing flora of the islands. 

 Often mentioned in ancient Hawaiian chants and legends this soft, feminine flower with white delicate petals and a pink showy stamen that will dramatically glow when the evening sun falls upon it is truly a treasure to be protected.
