On April 5, 2025, Senate Resolution 157 was unanimously approved by the full Senate, designating April 2025 as National Native Plant Month. Bishop Museum extends its deep appreciation for Hawaiʻi Senator Mazie Hirono, Hawaiʻi Representatives Ed Case and Jill Tokuda, and members of our Congress for their leadership and support of this important effort to recognize and bring awareness to native plants.
The new structure, Kamālaʻulahiwa, will help inspire the community to expand their thinking about a sustainable future for Hawaiʻi.
