Pigeons were loud with their wing-beat and doves fluttered about the branches of mahoe and poui trees. |
The blue mahoe could have been brought to Jamaica from Cuba by the Arawaks to be used for bark rope. |
The dominant species in the bush is the karaka, but there is also mahoe. |
Guests can also indulge in relaxing treatments at the a la carte Blue Mahoe Spa. |
Other members of the genus Hibiscus include the fibre plants mahoe and kenaf, okra, musk mallow, rose of Sharon, and many flowering plants known by the common name mallow. |
You will also see mahoe, putaputaweta, broadleaf, tree fuchsia and pigeonwood, and walk through a stand of kanuka. |
