Description
Pua Aloalo - Hibiscus arnottianus A. Gray – kokiʻo keʻokeʻo
(kokiʻo : white like the shine of silver) is an endemic species of hibiscus with white flowers.
Three subspecies are recognized:
H. arnottianus arnottianus found in the Waiʻanae Range of western Oʻahu
H. a. immaculatus which is very rare (listed as endangered) on Molokaʻi
H. a. punaluuensis from the Koʻolau Range on Oʻahu
Perhaps only a dozen plants of H. a. immaculatus exist in nature in mesic and wet forests.
This species is closely related to H. waimeae, and the two are among the very few members of the genus with fragrant flowers.
It is sometimes planted as an ornamental or crossed with H. rosa-sinensis.
In the Hawaiian language, the white hibiscus is known as the Pua Aloalo .
