We live on 5th in HPP. Since your lot is not ripped and is lacking additional dirt/cinder....the only way to grow anything is by planting in the lava cracks. Palms are one of the best for growing in cracks and need very little attention. If the crack is large enough you may also want to try a mango tree (we planted one on 5th in a large crack and its now 30 feet tall and producing lots of mangos).Hibiscus and Gardinia also do well.
