Ensuring a future for this plant and the relationships it sustains is part of our collective kuleana, our responsibility. Through the efforts of many, Ka Palupalu o Kanaloa has been brought back from the brink of extinction. Once numbering only two plants, our hui members have cultivated 20 plants (and growing). What we are doing in plant conservation is working—the combined expertise, commitment, and manaʻo of our partners is demonstrating the impact we can make collectively. Over the last 20 years, more plants have been saved in cultivation than ever before.
