We are ready to make an offer on a house in Royal Hawaiian Estates. I'd like to compile a list of what we can and cannot grow up there (edible stuff, not floral). I believe it is approx. 3500 feet, and the soil looks to be fine cinder on that particular lot from what i remember. I understand that some things will go be off-limits at that elevation (coconut palms), and some things do particularly well (citrus). We are very open to raised soil beds and maybe even a small greenhouse at some point. Our wishlist includes banana, pineapple, lychee, onion, garlic, avocado, and any kind of palm. Thanks in advance for your suggestions.
