This morning I went to a class for making a terrarium with native plants at the Waikiki Community Center, which is about three blocks from where I live. My table-mates were May and Mattias. I enjoyed it. The plants in my terrarium are Ala’ala wai nui wahine, Hinahina, and two other kinds of moss…you cannot see one because it is still tiny. Since I was/am a gardening person, I already knew how to do this, but it was nice to get out and meet some new people.
Note: After posting this, I looked up the names of the plants and I do not think that Hinahina is the correct name for the Spanish Moss. I believe it is called Umi’umi-o-dole. And I do not think it is “native”… the moss is named after Governor Sanford B. Dole's beard. Recently it has also been referred to as “Pele's hair”.
