<p>Kokiʻo keʻokeʻo, Oʻahu white hibiscus, Punaluʻu white hibiscus
Malvaceae
Endemic to the Hawaiian Islands
Oʻahu (Cultivated)
</p><p>The flowers on this plant are wider than my open hand! Probably the largest leaves and flowers of all the native Hawaiian hibiscuses. The fragrance on this particular plant is by far the strongest I have yet detected with any native white hibiscus. JUST AWESOME! My absolute favorite native Hawaiian hibiscus.
</p><p>Just a note: The two native white species of Hawaiian hibiscuses (H. arnottianus, H. waimeae) are the only two known fragrant hibiscus species in the world!
</p><p>NPH00029
