Uses and Culture

USES

  • Many references in songs and stories (Neal 1965:561), fiber for cordage (Bornhorst 1994:9)

  • The illnesses ‘ea and pa‘ao‘ao are treated with the flowers buds. The leaves are used as a purgative. For blood purification the flower buds are used in conjuction with the bark of the tap root, as well as the bark of the ‘ahakea (Bobea spp.), ‘ohi‘a ‘ai bark (Ipomoea pes-caprae), ‘uhaloa bark, (Waltheria indica), kikania (Desmodium sandwicense) plant (except pods), pohuehue roots (Ipomoea pes-caprae), hāpu‘u trunks (Cibotium spp.), ‘auko‘i stalks (Senna occidentalis), noni fuit (Morinda citrifolia), and kōhonua‘ula (red sugarcane, Saccharum officinarum) (Chun 1994:157–158).

PROPAGATION/CULTIVATION

  • The seeds of Hibiscus arnottianus are contained in papery 1/2 to 1 inch capsules which are tanor brown colored when ripe. The capsules split open when mature and the seeds fall to the ground. The fuzzy seeds are 1/8 inch long and yellowish brown.
  • Hibiscus arnottianus is easy to grow from fresh seed, but it hybridizes easily and the seedlings may differ from the parent plant. To ensure that the seedlings are not hybrids, hand pollinate the flowers. Using a paint brush, transfer pollen to the stigma of the flower and then enclose the flower in a bag until the seed capsule ripens. Bornhorst recommends hand pollination in the early morning. Pick the capsules just as they turn tan and before they open up. Place them in a container such as a paper bag to dry. As the capsule dries, the seeds will fall out or they can be removed manually.
  • Soak the seeds in water overnight and plant the ones that sink. Woolliams recommends using warm water. Use a well-drained sterile potting mix such as 2 parts potting soil and 1 part perlite and keep the mix moist. The NTBG plant information sheet suggests putting the seeds in the shade. Koob writes that the seeds generally sprout in 2 to 3 weeks. NTBG says that germination generally occurs in 3 to 9 days. (Bornhorst 1991; Koob 1998; NTBG 1992a; NTBG 1992b; Woolliams 1976)
  • Hibiscus arnottianus grow easily from semi-hardwood cuttings. Cuttings 4 to 6 inches long and less than 1/2 inch in diameter should be made from healthy branches without flower buds. Criley recommends terminal or sub-terminal cuttings. NTBG suggests using cuttings that are about 1/4 inch in diameter (pencil-sized) with at least 3 nodes.
  • Reduce transpiration by removing half of each leaf above the rooting medium and use a medium strength rooting hormone. Koob suggests 0.1% indolebutyric acid (IBA) and 0.05% naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) (Koob, email). Bornhorst (1996) recommends Rootone F or Hormex #3; Bornhorst (1991) also reports the use of a 1:10 Dip N Gro solution. Criley reports success with rooting hormones having a 2 to 1 ratio of IBA to NAA. In this work, good rooting was obtained with total auxin concentrations ranging from 4,000 parts per million (ppm) to 7,500 ppm.
  • Use a well-drained medium. Bornhorst (1991) reports success with a mixture of 1 part perlite to 1 part vermiculite. Koob suggests clean sand, perlite, or vermiculite; Criley uses either 1 part coarse perlite to 1 part vermiculite or 100% vermiculite; NTBG recommends a mixture of 1 part potting soil and 1 part perlite.
  • Keep the cuttings in a humid environment and the rooting medium moist. Put the cuttings under a mist system if possible, but a humidity chamber or hand misting twice a day may be adequate. Bornhorst (1991) reports the successful use of a mist system which was one for 24 seconds every 3 minutes. Criley's work was done using an intermittent mist system which was on for 6 to 8 seconds every 5 or 6 minutes; cuttings were rooted under 30% shade. Cuttings are ready to transplant in 2 to 5 months. (Bornhorst 1991; Bornhorst 1996; Criley 1999; Criley 1998; Koob 1998; NTBG 1992a; NTBG 1992b)
  • Hibiscus arnottianus can be air layered. Use standard air layer technique on a branch that is about 1 inch in diameter. Bornhorst recommends selecting a branch that is growing upright and making the air layer between 1 and 2 feet from the tip of the branch.
  • To start a plant by air layering, remove the bark and cambium from a 1 inch wide ring of bark. Apply a rooting hormone to the cut surface and cover this with a layer of damp sphagnum moss. Wrap the moss in plastic being sure to secure the ends where it wraps around the branch.
  • The air layer should be ready to remove from the parent plant in 3 to 5 months. Bornhorst (1996) suggests that root systems from air-layered plants are not as vigorous as those produced by other techniques. (Bornhorst 1991; Bornhorst 1996; Koob 1998)
  • Hibiscus arnottianus can easily be grafted. Use a rootstock of the common red, pink waterfall, double pink, or of the cultivar 'Peachglow.' Most grafting techniques will work. The scion (the piece of the desired plant that will be attached to the rootstock) should be 3 to 4 inches long with 2 to 4 nodes. Cut the scion from branches that are semi-mature; both tips and stem sections work well for scion wood. Bornhorst (1991) recommends either wedge or side wedge grafting techniques.
