Earth and Space News: Are Pala'a Hawaiian Lace Ferns Five-0's Trunkless Tree of Kahilikolo?

Summary: Pala'a Hawaiian lace ferns, announcements of the Makahiki Hawaiian Thanksgiving, are not like Five-0's The Trunkless Tree of Kahilikolo Nov. 22, 2019.

Pala'a Hawaiian lace ferns, augurs of the ancient Makahiki Hawaiian Thanksgiving, never appear root-massed and woody like Hawaii Five-0 police procedural television series episode The Trunkless Tree of Kahilikolo Nov. 22, 2019.

Director Ron Underwood and writers Noah Evslin and Paul Grellong bring the 'ōlelo ao ("proverb"), Ka Ia'au Kumu 'Ole O Kahilikolo, into Season 10's ninth episode. The series' 227th episode overall considers crass crimes, such as the Thanksgiving season robbery of Hawaii Five-0 Task Force Officer Junior Reigns' (Beulah Koale) parental home. Hawaii Five-0 Task Force Lieutenant Commander Steve McGarrett (Alex O'Loughlin) still deals with his mother Doris' (Christine Lahti) death on Central Intelligence Agency mission in Mexico.

Hawaii Five-0 Task Force Detective Danny Williams (Scott Caan) enters the McGarrett property as Hawaii Five-0 Task Force canine Eddie's (Eddie Aikau Chipperton) and Steve's housemate.

The Makahiki Hawaiian Thanksgiving (from same-spelled Hawaiian, "year") fit into the lunar-month year of four months from harvest to planting and eight from planting to harvest.

The Makahiki Hawaiian Thanksgiving gathered into an akua loa (from same-spelled Hawaiian, "image long" literally) bird feathers and skins, fern shoots and tree bark and wood. Its long-traveled images harbored Hawaiian wattle (Acacia koa) carved wood and pounded bark; ka'upu Hawaiian black-footed albatross (Phoebastria nigripes) parts; and pala'a Hawaiian lace fern shoots. All itineraries inhibited fishing and law-breaking, with thieves of invaluable koa banners and carvings among the most insulting, and initiated harvests, music, peace, religion and sports.

Pala'a Hawaiian lace ferns journey into perennial life cycles as cultivated, propagated horizontal-stemmed, root-like, shoot-like, underground-stemmed rhizome cuttings or as wild-germinated spores (from Greek σπορά, "seed").

Pala'a Hawaiian lace ferns, known locally as pala'ā ("brown-red [dye from fronds]"), pala'e, palapala'ā and pā'ū-o-pala'e, keep their spores at the tips of their smallest segments.

The Lindsaeaceae (for Dr. John Lindsay FRSE, 1750-Aug. 18, 1803, and from Latin -āceae, "resembling") family member lodges elliptical, monolete spores with one laesura ("suture line"). The necklace fern family may mature asexually from dug up, divided, propagated rhizome (from Greek ῥίζα, "root" and σῶμα, "mass") clumps or sexually from germinated spores. Pala'a Hawaiian lace ferns, noted by Carl Linnaeus (May 13, 1707-Jan. 10, 1778) and William Maxon (Feb. 27, 1877-Feb. 25, 1948), need new-growth, three-plus-leafed rhizome cuttings.

Pala'a Hawaiian lace ferns, organized as Sphenomeris chinensis (from Greek σφήν, "wedge," μέρος, "part" and Latin chinēnsis, "Chinese"), offer orange-stalked green-white fronds (from Latin frōns, "leaf").

Mature pala'a Hawaiian lace ferns present 5- to 30-plus-inch- (12.7- to 76.2-centimeter-) long, hairless, smooth-surfaced fronds and 2- to 5-foot (0.61- to 1.52-meter) heights and spreads.

Pala'a Hawaiian lace ferns queue up aluminum and iron oxide-rich red-dirted or fertile forest-brown moist, semi-shaded, sunlit, well-drained soils from sea level through 4,002.63-foot (1,220-meter) altitudes. Four- to 6-inch (0.31- to 0.61-meter) diameter rhizome cuttings require 1- to 2-foot (0.31- to 0.61-meter) spacing as ground cover and 3-plus-foot (0.91-plus-meter) spacing as specimens. Caterpillars, mealybugs, salt spray, scale and wind stress the drought-tolerant indigenous companion of Hawaiian myrtle ('ōhia lehua, Merosideros polymorpha) and tree ferns (hāpu'u pulu, Cibotium glaucum).

Non-woody pala'a Hawaiian lace ferns and, as a woody plant root-massed and trunked sideways in Kahilikolo traditions, koa trees transmit trunklessness as Makihiki Hawaiian Thanksgiving talismans.

Kamakona Tupuola's (Taylor Wily) cousin Flippa Tupuola (Shawn Mokuahi Garnett), Hawaii Five-0 Task Force Lieutenant Commander Steve McGarrett (Alex O'Loughlin) and Flippa's mother, Princess (Lori Pelenise Tuisano), enjoy a Thanksgiving meal, prepared for the H50 ohana by the Tupuolas, held at Steve's home, in CBS-TV's Hawaii Five-0 season 10 episode 10, Ka la‘au kumu ‘ole o Kahilikolo (The trunkless tree of Kahilikolo): Hawaii Five-0 @HawaiiFive0CBS, via Facebook Nov. 20, 2019
