This species is indigenous to Hawaii; it is a naturalized Polynesian canoe plant. Coconut Palm is one of the most useful plants in the world, as Early Hawaiians were able to repurpose almost every part of this tree species. Coconuts provided food and emergency drinking water while oil from the meat was also applied cosmetically to the skin and hair. Kitchenware, such as spoons, cups, bowls, and containers could be made from coconut shells. Leaves and husks were used to create cordage, baskets, and roofing thatch among other goods. Niu trunks were also used for house construction, canoe building, and drums.
