Alula (Brigham the Great)
Alula (Brighamia insignis), sometimes known as cabbage on a stick in English, is a Hawaiian plant that truly lives up to the nickname. The species faced a series of challenges that it was unable to overcome.
First, the plant is endemic to an extremely limited habitat, growing only on certain windswept cliffs of the islands of Kauai and Niihau. Second, the only pollinator for its incredibly long, narrow flowers has become extinct, rendering the plant unable to reproduce.
For years, dedicated botanists would climb rocks or even hang from helicopters to manually pollinate surviving populations, and the species was kept alive. However, in 1992, Hurricane Iniki destroyed half the natural population along the Nā Pali coast of Kauai, and two subsequent hurricanes destroyed other populations.
Now, only one Alula plant is known to remain in the wild.
All is not lost, however. The plant is easy to grow, grows well in pots and produces very fragrant flowers. These traits, combined with the allure of growing a critically endangered Hawaiian plant, have made it a popular ornamental species.
