PS. youre right about the lava being exposed in the creek in the main flow zone, but there should be some plants growing on it too stuck to the porous lava.... I have a huge Ironwood that is growing in middle of creek and it really doesnt have soil.... its the largest (fattest, 8' wide) Ironwood Ive seen on this island, I also have the largest Waiwi Ive ever seen too (2.5' wide at its base). And my Ohia trees in the floodzone grow like redwood trees trying to outgrow the huge Waiwi, on the largest ones, the Ohia's first branches start 50' up the tree and the tree is as straight as an arrow w/some close to 100' tall and a few are growing on solid rock with their roots going to soil.
My trees grow good because along both sides of the creek there is a ton of washed in soil built up along with old bottles and tires lol
save our indigenous and endemic Hawaiian Plants... learn about them, grow them, and plant them on your property, ....instead of all that invasive non-native garbage I see in most yards... aloha
