The ‘aʻaliʻi (Dodonaea viscosa) is a resilient, native Hawaiian shrub or small tree known for its wind resistance and ability to colonize difficult environments like lava flows. It produces striking, papery seed capsules that are used in lei making, and its hard wood was traditionally utilized for tools, weapons, and construction. The plant is culturally significant, with a proverb using its name to describe a strong, resilient person.
