Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Endemic plants only found within the National Park on the slopes of Haleakala. Although Silverswords can live for as long as 90 years, they only flower once. For most of its life, ahinahina resembles a bouquet of swords, with silver, spikey, succulent leaves growing densely at ground level. As a Silversword plant reaches maturation, which can occur anytime within three to 90 years, it sends out a long, flowering stalk covered in hundreds of vibrant purple flowers. After the flowers dry out, the Silversword also dries out and dies, leaving several thousand seeds to scatter in the wind and (hopefully) take root elsewhere. |
