A couple of pics in Pa'ia
The North shore of Pa'ia and the memorial church of Father Damian. He was the priest that took care of all the lepers that were shipped off to Moloka'i way back when.
some flowers
A rare red Hawaiian type of Hibiscus, Bamboo trees, a flower from the Antherium family....and The Grundies.
Kula Botanical Gardens
After the Lavender farm, we went to the Kula Botanical Gardens. They had such a variety of beautiful flowers....felt like we were in heaven.
Proteas and King Proteas
Maui has this special flower that grows only in Maui. Some people (super green thumbs)have been able to grow them elsewhere with extra care. They require the altitude and the weather conditions. They have no smell but are the most unusual and beautiful flower. I picked up a pretty bouquet for Aunty Rose and gave it to her when we flew back to Oahu. It is one of her favorite flowers.
Lavender Farms in Kula
This tour was my most favorite thing. We carted around and the tour guide explained all the different types of lavender. They also had other flowers and plants that they use in the ingredients of their products they sell.
Our drive up to Kula
While driving up to the Lavender farm, we had beautiful views of both the North and South shores of Maui.
