It belongs to the fig family, and is grown for its edible fruits, sometimes for ornament. The leaves are large, oblong, more or less lobed; fruits are round or oblong, weighing up to 4.5 kilos, when cooked tasting something like sweet potatoes.
ʻIʻiwi:Scarlet Hawaiian honey creeper (Vestiaria coccinea), found on all the main islands; its feathers were used extensively in feather work.
