ʻŌhi‘a Seed Collection Needs
The number of seed collections needed for ʻōhiʻa on each island are below. Based on statewide goals to secure collections from 1,000 trees of each species and variety of ʻōhiʻa, targets have been set for every seed zone where they are known to occur. These targets will be updated as we find more about the distribution of each kind of ʻōhiʻa.
The Kauaʻi map was developed by Ben Nyberg, Seana Walsh, and Dustin Wolkis from NTBG and Adam Williams from DOFAW. All other maps by Alex Loomis from Duke University.
