2009 Celebration of the life of Dr. Julie Holmes…  a beautiful gathering of friends and family

  • [00:05] Introduction to Native-Style Hardwood Trees and Koa
    The speaker begins by describing the planting of native-style hardwood trees, focusing particularly on the koa tree, recognizable by its sickle-shaped leaves. The koa tree was specifically chosen and planted for its value, as koa wood is known to be highly valuable. There is some uncertainty regarding the identification of other tree species planted alongside the koa, but the emphasis remains on the koa’s significance both ecologically and economically. The context suggests a deliberate effort to cultivate valuable native trees, possibly within a conservation or restoration project.

We’re going to have people pull in, too, but if you pull in, of course, you’re blocked, and so everybody else would be valuable. So she decided to see, like, native-style hardwood trees. So I think this one here with the sickle-shaped trees, I think that’s koa. She planted some koa trees, and I’m not sure what else these are. So this is probably koa right here. Figuring that, you know, it would be valuable, because koa wood is pretty valuable.
