From the HPP web site mentioning past and present items:
"I had a Johnny Appleseed complex in the early 60's when I had more time than anything else, so I got busy and dug up some of the albizzia tree seedlings from the Nanawale Forest Reserve and planted them along Paradise Drive and Makuu. I tried to do it randomly and in far enough, so if utility lines ever came in they wouldn't interfere with them. I can see I didn't really accomplish that, now that the trees have grown up pretty high today. But it is a tree that adapts well to this area, whereas the shower trees, monkey pod and some of the others, just didn't make it when they weren't attended. If you take care of these they will grow all right."
