On June 18 the first corpse flower to bloom at Lyon opened up.
Also known as the titan arum (Amorphophallus titanum), this
species produces the largest unbranched inflorescence (flower
cluster) in the world. Our plant was grown from seed at Lyon
and is five years old. The inflorescence reached a height of al-
most five feet and a width of about 34 inches. But our plant is
just a youngster because very mature plants can produce an in-
florescence over 10 feet tall!
Despite its youth it truly lived up to its name – releasing the
“fragrance” of a dead animal that was so strong on the day it
opened that it drove people away
but attracted carrion flies, the
natural pollinators, who were
buzzing around it all afternoon.
In its native habitat, the rainfor-
ests of western Sumatra, carrion beetles also serve as pollina-
tors. By Monday morning the smell wasn’t quite as bad.
Amorphophallus titanium is in the same plant family (Araceae)
as kalo, anthuriums and philodendrons. Commonly known as
aroids, these plants are characterized by having many small
flowers on a spike (spadix) surrounded by a petal-like structure
called a spathe. A close relative of A. titanium is A. konjak,
from warm areas in East Asia. Known as konnyaku in Japan,
the corms of this species are used as food.

A Corpse Flower Blooms at Lyon
Aloha kākou!
I am writing this, my last Kukui Leaf message to you, with sadness but also with great gratitude for the support and alo-
ha which I have received as Interim Director during the past three years. I have treasured my time here and as I pre-
pare to leave the Arboretum on July 31st, I have many fond memories and know that we have accomplished much to-
gether.
When I arrived at Lyon Arboretum in May 2014, we were just gearing up for a major project to remove large Albizia trees from the central grounds
along the main road into the Arboretum. This project was funded by UH Manoa to protect the safety of visitors and staff from the falling branches
of these dangerous trees. It was an especially challenging project which involved extensive plant rescue by our staff, skilled climbing arborists
and specialized equipment from Imua Landscaping Co., and exclusion of the public from the dangerous areas of tree removal. After two phases
of the project in 2014 and 2015, twenty five of these huge trees were removed and the Arboretum is now a much safer place. In addition, this
project has opened large areas of the Arboretum to new garden development, by increasing light and space for new plantings. The Albizia tree
removal and new plantings have changed the face of Lyon Arboretum for decades to come.
Another important project completed in the last three years was the Trails Project to produce plans for improving the layout, surfaces and signage
for trails throughout the Arboretum. This project was also funded by UH Manoa and provided plans for the main trails throughout the Arboretum to
improve access and safety. The work was carried out by Bow Engineering Inc. with the consulting assistance of Ki Concepts. The detailed plans
were completed in early 2016 and provide “shovel ready” designs and engineering to permit implementation of these improvements when funding
allows. Requests for this funding have been submitted to UH and we expect these trail improvements to be implemented incrementally as funding
becomes available.
Since 1992, Lyon Arboretum’s research emphasis on conservation biology led to the development of its Hawaiian Rare Plant Program (HRPP),
which focuses on the rescue and recovery of Hawai‘i’s most critically endangered native plants through the use of tissue culture and seed bank-
ing. After five years of planning, fundraising and designing, construction of the new Micropropagation laboratory at Lyon Arboretum finally began
with a groundbreaking ceremony on June 4th, 2016. The lab will greatly expand our ability to conduct research, provide training, and will double
our capacity to store and grow critically endangered Hawaiian plants. With this improved and expanded facility, the HRPP can continue to focus
on the task of receiving and maintaining rare plant germplasm for storage, propagation and eventual restoration of Hawaii’s native plants in jeop-
ardy. Significant funding for this construction has come from the Hawai‘i Legislature, Hau‘oli Mau Loa Foundation, Chamberlin Foundation, Cooke
Foundation, Friends of Lyon Arboretum, and UH Mānoa. We are very grateful for both the financial contributions as well as the significant collabo-
rations which have allowed construction of this new lab. Completion of this project is expected later this year and the Arboretum looks forward to
welcoming you to the grand opening.
Another significant occurrence for Lyon Arboretum was our participation in the September 2016 IUCN World Conservation Congress. I wrote
about this participation in the Fall 2016 newsletter, but with the importance of this event, it bears repeating that Lyon Arboretum, our staff and vol-
unteers presented ourselves well. We had a well-attended exhibit on Hawaii’s plant conservation programs, many visitors to the Arboretum, and a
successful Conservation Congress on how to partner for plant conservation on oceanic islands. A recent follow up has been the invitation to Lyon
Arboretum to join the inaugural meeting of the IUCN US National Committee near Washington DC in mid-June 2017. Nellie Sugii represented
Lyon Arboretum at this meeting and also took the opportunity to visit with Hawaii’s Congressional delegates and granting agencies in DC. Since
the WCC, Lyon Arboretum’s international recognition has expanded, with Matt Keir currently visiting Kew Royal Botanic Gardens and attending
the Global Botanic Garden Congress in Geneva, accepting an award on behalf of Marian Chau for the world’s rarest seed banked species, Silene
perlmanii. Marian is scheduled to attend the International Botanical Congress in China this July. She is going as co-chair of the IUCN Seed Spe-
cialist Group and received almost complete travel, lodging and logistical support to attend.
I want to provide special recognition to the hard work and unflagging support of the Friends of Lyon Arboretum, who help us in so many ways.
They have raised hundreds of thousands of dollars through their special events (like “Lyon in the Sun” and “Lyon in the Summer”) which is ear-
marked for much needed Master Planning at Lyon Arboretum. When we’ve had crucial repair needs such as damaged roofs, plumbing repairs or
generator problems, they have come through with the funds. They are regular volunteers at events such as Plant Sales and helped immensely
with the World Conservation Congress. Recently, FLA committed $10,000 to internships for 2017 which is supporting five interns at Lyon this
summer and have indicated that this may become an annual contribution. I am very grateful to the help and friendship that FLA has given me, as
well as to the scores of regular volunteers at Lyon Arboretum, such as the Hui Hana, Jams and Jellies, Visitor Center, Grounds maintenance,
Trails, Greenhouse, Education, Micropropagation Lab, and many others. Lyon Arboretum would truly not function as well without you!
Finally, I want to acknowledge the hard working and dedicated staff at Lyon Arboretum who do an amazing job every day to maintain and provide
programs at this nearly 200 acre research and educational Arboretum and public botanical garden. While we have lost some great staff (who
have mostly moved on to better job opportunities) we have also hired many terrific new staff who represent the future of Lyon Arboretum. It has
been my great pleasure to know and work with you.
Aloha no,
Carl I. Evensen
From the Director’s Desk
Aloha friends and members. It has been an honor to have served as President of the Friends of Lyon Arboretum Board. As I write my last article for the Kukui Leaf, I am pleased to report that the Board has been wonderfully productive, helping the Arboretum in a variety of ways, assisting at plant sales, funding student internships for the different departments and assisting in the procurement of grants. Our membership is slowly grow-ing and more locals and visitors are becoming aware of the special treasure tucked away in the back of Manoa Valley.
One of my last projects is chairing our big fundraiser, An Evening at Lyon on September 16. The majority of the funds raised will be used for developing a Master Plan to revital-ize the Lyon Arboretum. We will also be setting aside money to go toward more summer internships as we feel this is important for the future.
Thank you for your continued support. Now that my term is ending, I am looking forward to other ways I can contribute to my favorite place!

Lyon Arboretum’s #OhiaLove Project was a success! Seed Conservation Lab staff collected and banked over 2 million ‘ōhi‘a seeds from O‘ahu and Hawai‘i Is-land, and also banked over 700,000 ‘ōhi‘a seeds from Kaua‘i. Visit ohialove.com to view photo galleries of our collection trips and to learn more.
What’s next? The Rapid ʻŌhiʻa Death Seed Banking Initiative is a new project that builds on the momen-tum of #OhiaLove. Thanks to funding from the Hawaiʻi Tourism Authority, UH Lyon Arboretum will be leading efforts to expand capacity for collection and banking of ʻōhiʻa seeds across all islands in response to the ROD crisis. The ROD Seed Banking Initiative has two parts:
Community Involvement in ʻŌhiʻa Seed Conservation In 2016, the Hawaiʻi Seed Bank Partnership (HSBP) de-veloped seed collection protocols and a statewide collec-tion strategy for ʻōhiʻa. With this structure in place, we can expand our efforts and scale up seed collection – with your help! We’ll do this by offering ʻŌhiʻa Seed Con-servation Workshops on each island, free of charge and open to the local community. These provide training on how to properly collect, handle, and process ʻōhiʻa seeds, without doing harm to trees or forests, using methods that protect seed viability and ensure conservation value for future restoration. HTA funding also supports emer-gency seed banking of these ʻōhiʻa seeds at HSBP facili-ties on multiple islands.
Rare Plant Conservation on Hawaiʻi Island The core partner of Lyon’s Hawaiian Rare Plant Pro-gram is the Plant Extinction Prevention Pro-gram (PEPP), which works with the rarest of the rare: species with less than 50 individual plants remaining in the wild. There are 40 PEPP species on Hawaiʻi Island, where severe habitat alteration by ROD stands to have devastating effects on rare plant popu-lations. It is important for PEPP to rapidly collect seeds from as many remaining rare plants as possi-ble and secure them at Lyon’s Seed Conservation Lab. Funds are supporting increased PEPP collec-tions on Hawaiʻi Island and storage of those seeds at Lyon Arboretum.

COTTAGE C REPLACEMENT UPDATE : LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL
How time flies when you’re
having fun. It’s already the
first half of 2017 and the
cottage C replacement pro-
ject is finally seeing the
light at the end of the tun-
nel.
My predictions for comple-
tion of this project was May
or June 2017. Unfortu-
nately, with weather, de-
sign and material delays,
this project will now be
scheduled for completion
in September or October
2017.
The good news is that 80%
of the building is complete
and we’re looking at finish-
ing up the interior fire
sprinkler system, roofing,
drywall, interior painting,
cabinetry and counter top
installation, flooring, instal-
lation of electrical and
plumbing fixtures, concrete
driveway, asphalt top for
handicap parking, test and
balance air conditioning
units and finally switching
diesel power generator
from cottage D to the new
cottage C building.
If all goes according to
plan, the Lyon Arboretum
will be blessed with a
brand new Micropropaga-
tion Lab that will specialize
in having the largest collec-
tion of native and Polyne-
sian introduced plants in
the world.

UH MANOA—CAMPUS CONNECTION
If you visit Lyon Arboretum, you’ll
often see the members of the Education De-
partment out and about the grounds with
groups of children. When I was a teacher, I
brought my students to enjoy the beautiful en-
vironment at the Arboretum. Little did I know
what went on behind the scenes to plan that
visit. Now that I am here as the Education
Manager, I am very appreciative of the hard
work that the staff does to ensure a wonderful
experience for the children. I’d like to share a
day in the life of the Lyon Arboretum Education
Department.
Most of the week is spent hosting
school children, mainly from elementary
schools. Prior to the visit, the Education staff
works very hard to coordinate with teachers
who are arranging the visit to craft a field trip
suited to their needs. We have a variety of field
trips to choose
from that are
aligned to the Ha-
waii State Stand-
ards. Currently, the
Education staff is
working hard to
revise and align
our activities for
the school groups
to the Next Gener-
ation Science
Standards, which
has recently been adapted by Hawaii.
One of the challenges when arrang-
ing the field trips is that groups cannot stay at
the Arboretum past lunch due to the bus
schedule. The bus schedule really affects how
long our activities are and there are just so
many things to teach the students but never
enough time. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if Lyon
Arboretum had their own bus?
Once a reservation has been made
and the field trip theme chosen, we await the
arrival of the group. On those days, we start
with prepping the materials for the activities.
There’s so much to do and by the time we fin-
ish, it’s time to meet the school group.
The large school buses cannot drive
up our road so we meet the children at Para-
dise Park and walk them up to our Education
building. It can be challenging as there are
cars driving past the group, sometimes very
fast! The group also has to navigate past the
tourists making their way to Manoa Falls. Liat
Portner, one of our wonderful Education Assis-
tants makes the walk into a learning opportuni-
ty with the children. Rebecca Beralas, another
super Education Assistant, makes sure to keep
the children safe by following the group in our
handy little electric cart and making sure the
cars don’t speed by. Rebecca sometimes has
to deal with the impatient drivers tailgating
behind her or visitors to Manoa Falls asking
her for a ride. She handles everything with
grace and patience.
We arrive at the Children’s Learning
Center, and sometimes children ask if the walk
up the road was their hike. We tell them that
we haven’t even started our activities yet.
There are always some children who aren’t so
enthused about hiking more as they might al-
ready be tired or don’t like being outside for
extended periods of time. Fortunately, as we
take the children around the Arboretum, the
activities we have planned help the children
become a bit more comfortable outside and
they often end up enjoying themselves. Kudos
to Liat and Rebecca as their enthusiasm often
excites the kids to marvel at the colors, pat-
terns, and textures of the plants and trees they
might never have noticed before. Each activity
can have a few challenges here and there.
Students who need to use the bathroom when
we may be in the middle of a walk, children
who are hot, tired, cold, wet, etc. For the Edu-
cation staff, it’s all part of experiencing nature
and we hope that this little bit of time can pro-
vide the children with a bit more resilience
should they have an opportunity to venture out
in the “wild” again.
Lunch time is even educational as
we ask the children what plants they may be
eating. We teach the kids about recycling as
we sort the trash into recyclables, food waste
that we give to the chickens, and trash for dis-
posal. After lunch, it’s either another activity or
back to the buses. Then the staff returns to
clean the rooms and attend to our other busi-
ness like organizing the wonderful volunteers,
working with the business office to coordinate
tours, and publicizing what is happening at
Lyon on social media and our website.
We work mainly with elementary schools but
we do have University of Hawaii and other
colleges request visits. We recently hosted a
professional development workshop for about
60 public school teachers. We attend outreach
fairs to educate the public about what we do
here at Lyon Arboretum. It’s a lot to do but
luckily, the other departments at Lyon also
have a hand in educating the public and visi-
tors at Lyon Arboretum. Our interim Director,
Carl Evensen, recently lead the class for
teachers and taught them about watersheds.
Liloa Dunn, Grounds Manager, also did a
presentation at that same workshop about
service opportunities. The Friends of Lyon
Arboretum have also provided our department
some support by providing funding for a sum-
mer intern. Grace Giletti, a recent graduate
from the University of Hawaii Manoa, has been
helping us this summer with our Summer
Camp and school field trips as well as with
revising our activities for next year. She’s been
a great addition to our little department. It’s all
in a day’s work for the Lyon staff. We are fortu-
nate to have the support of the other depart-
ments and we all work together to educate the
many visitors we have at the Arboretum.
