Goober has probably never figured it out.

You probably could have sold that dumb city slicker some "magic beans" and
he would never catch on.

The little remaining endemic Hawaiian flora is endangered and mostly not
very showy. Personally, I would be looking for the native yellow-flowered
Dracaena (Pleomele) species or Binghamia.

When I lived in Hawaii ( Makaha area of Oahu ) I was out tending to my
canna plants one day. A car pulled up and a guy got out and took some
photos of the canna, he said he was from the midwest and he wanted to
take home some Hawaiian plants, so I sold him some canna rhizomes.

I've always wondered how long it took him to figure out that canna
didn't come from Hawaii, that they are new world plants from the south
mexico, cent/south Am areas?
