Native to Hawaii, Metrosideros polymorpha, commonly known as ʻŌhiʻa Lehua, is often one of the first plants to grow across fresh lava flows after volcanic eruptions. Deeply connected to Hawaiian ecology and mythology, the tree has become a symbol of resilience, regeneration, and life emerging from destruction.
