La`au Kanakolu Kumamawalu....38th Plant
Formosa Koa
Acacia confusa
The Formosan Koa appears much like its Hawaiian relative Koa
except the trees are smaller, more widespread through low-land
moist forests, and the leaves are smaller and straighter. This
is a native of the Phillipines and Taiwan (Formosa) grown as
an ornamental, and occuring as a weedy tree in Hawaii.
