Interesting dialogue between you two.
I once wrote "diseased" instead of "deceased" on the mail of a friend's Mother. She was not sick, she was no longer living. Never could figure out why knee has a k and neck doesn't. oh well. Back to topic.
I'm not not sure if I understand what varieties of Ohia you are talking about, but I do know that although some, not all, of our Ohia trees are turning brown, ( from the top) others are popping up in the rot of Ohia cut down years ago and also in tree ferns in the yard. They seem to do best if they plant themselves, although I have bought a few in pots too and they are growing well. 40$ usually.
My neighbor who has land in Hawaiian Acres says Keiki Ohia are all over her lot, and she sometimes brings me a box full. I haven't had much success with those, but I think I planted them in a particularly day year.
Good luck. IMHO, planting trees is a worthy endeavor.
