Things were looking extremely dry at the dry forest this month. I saw this last summer too, but didn't get pictures of it then. I wonder if the species wilt every summer, or only during drought years like this year and last?
Alahe'e (Psydrax odorata) looking pretty dry and wilted.
The new growth on lama (Diospyros sandwicensis) also looked wilted.
Mamane (Sophora chrysophylla) leaflets has turned brown.
This is an adult iliahi (Sandalwood; Santalum paniculatum) tree with wilted leaves.
I guess I was feeling pretty wilted by the end of it. It was a really hot day...but I got my seeds!.
Leila Kekuewa, however, still managed to look cool.
