Rapid ʻŌhiʻa Death
Season 2019 Episode 13 | 56m 45sVideo has Closed Captions
We’ll discuss Rapid ʻŌhiʻa Death – what is it, what’s being done about it, how to help.
The ʻŌhiʻa tree, with its companion lehua blossom, is found only in Hawaiʻi, and is the most common of our Islands’ native trees. It is the keystone of the Hawaiʻi forest, critical to the ecology of our watersheds and sacred in Hawaiian culture. And now it is under attack, with new species of fungi killing trees on two islands.
