Does anyone remember the directions,been there once but can't remember the name of the road?

At the light in Kurtistown, turn uphill, to the right headed South.
A ways up that road, it will be on the right.
If the sale is on you'll know when you're there by all the cars parked around.

They will also have several signs on the roadway once you turn at the light. Their property does go back off the main road quite a ways. But yes, you will see traffic.

Also, let them know your elevation and ask questions. They sold me a $65 mango tree and we live in Leilani. We will likely never see a mango here!

Elevation will not have any effect on whether one can grow mangoes in Leilani. You are certainly not too high on the moutain. The problem is the wet weather. The rain causes anthracnose (Colletotrichum gloeosporioides) which damages the fruit. If you pick the right variety, you'll have a pretty good shot at getting fruit. The varieties ‘Paris’, ‘Fairchild’ and ‘Rapoza’ are resistant to anthracnose.


Here's a good article on it published by the UH.
