Earth and Space News: Kanawao Shrub Fruits for Hawaii Five-0's Hapai Ke Kuko, Hanau Ka Hewa

Summary: Kanawao shrub fruits avoid one kind of evil on Hawaii Five-0's Hapai Ke Kuko, Hanau Ka Hewa: When Covetousness Is Conceived, Sin Is Born Feb. 22, 2019.

Kanawao shrub fruits assure actual childbirth, not symbolic births of evil in the Hawaii Five-0 episode Hapai Ke Kuko, Hanau Ka Hewa: When Covetousness Is Conceived, Sin Is Born Feb. 22, 2019.

Director Jerry Levine and writers Talia Gonzalez and Bisanne Masoud borrow a biblical passage from the New Testament book of James for Season 9's 16th episode. The series 209th episode overall concentrates upon the first half of verse 15 in the first chapter by James the Just (4 B.C.?-62 or 69 A.D.). The verse's two halves together describe desire for someone or something deemed someone else's as the deliberate descent into spiritual death before and after physical demise.

Hawaii Five-0 Task Force members encounter a dead salesperson whose pyramid schemes extract investments for beauty company expenses and later investments for earlier investors' dividend earnings.

Kanawao shrubs and trees fit flowering, fruiting and seeding months into cultivated and wild Hawai'i, Kaua'i, Lāna'i, Maui, Moloka'i and O'ahu as endemic evergreen woody perennials.

Kanawao cuttings garner mature plants at all elevations even as grooved, oblong, 0.25-inch- (0.64-centimeter-) long seeds germinate growth-stressed seedlings in low-altitude botanical gardens and home landscapes. The Hydrangeaceae (from Greek ύδωρ, húdōr, "water" and αγγος, ángos, "jar"; and Latin '-āceae, "resembling") family member's red berries, with ti leaf-baked eggs, anecdotally help fertility. Blue, cream-white, pink, yellow, 0.39-inch (10-millimeter) female flowers include five 0.06-inch (1.5-millimeter) petals, five-lobed 0.12-inch (3-millimeter) calyxes, five-celled ovaries, grooved ovules, short styles and five-lobed stigmas.

Only female-flowering 1.97- to 4.33-inch (5- to 11-centimeter) clusters jostle 0.39-inch (10-millimeter) diameter berries on dioecious (from Greek δίς, dís, "twice" and οικία, oikía, "house") dioecious.

Male-flowering 0.51-inch (13-millimeter) corymbs (from Greek κόρυμβος, kórumbos, "embryo") know five 0.39-inch (10-millimeter) petals, five-lobed calyxes (from Greek κάλυξ, kálux, "husk") and ten 0.51-inch (13-millimeter) stamens.

Leaf undersides lodge nanana makaki'i (happy-face spiders, Theridion grallator) and log coarse, green, leathery, veined leaves with orange, pink, red or white midribs and sharp-toothed edges. Opposite-positioned kanawao shrub and tree foliage maintains 3.94- to 9.84-inch (10- to 25-centimeter) lengths and 1.58- to 3.54-inch (4- to 9-centimeter) widths during five-plus-year life cycles. Kanawao shrubs and trees, named Broussaisia arguta (from François-Joseph-Victor Broussais, Dec. 17, 1772-Nov. 17, 1838, and same-spelled Latin for "keen, quick-witted, sharp, witty"), naturalize outside Hawaii.

Kanawao shrubs and trees, observed scientifically by Charles Gaudichaud-Beaupré (Sept. 4, 1789-Jan. 16, 1854), only occurs endemically in Hawaii, on six of eight main Hawaiian Islands.

Mature growth habits, maximally at 4.92- to 9.84-foot (1.5- to 3-meter) heights and 19.69-foot (6-meter) spreads, produce rough-surfaced, wildlife-friendly kanawao shrub fruits and kanawao tree berries.

The Hawaiian honeycreepers 'akohekohe (Palmeria dolei), 'amakihi (Chlorodrepanis virens), 'ō'ū (Psittirostra psittacea) and po'ouli (Melamprosops phaeosoma) and Maui parrotbills kiwikiu (Pseudonestor xanthophrys) queue up on kanawao. They rest atop the brown-gray outer, pink inner bark of semi-fissured trunks and semi-succulent twigs and on 0.79- to 1.97-inch- (2- to 5-centimeter-) long leaf stalks. Their kanawao shrub and tree host plants seek 50- to 100-inch (1,270- to 2,40-millimeter) rainfall at 985- to 6,700-plus-foot (300.23- to 2,042.16-meter) altitudes above sea level.

Kanawao shrub fruits anciently thwarted barren couples coveting another's children whereas nothing nowadays threatens coveting another's money or, except Hawaii Five-0 task force members, another's life.

Hawaii Five-0 Investigator Adam Noshimuri (Ian Anthony Dale) thanks the Hawaii Five-0 Task Force team for rescuing him from being "so sick to my stomach with sadness" in CBS TV's Hawaii Five-0 season 9, episode 16, Hapai Ke Kuko, Hanau Ka Hewa: CBS Hawaii Five-0 episode 9.16 promotional photo, via SpoilerTV Feb. 7, 2019
