Naupaka - Kuahiwi (Mountain) Size:36x36 canvas Sizes S thru 3XL areThe moolelo (story, tale, myth, legend) of the naupaka shrub varies depending on the source. However, the theme of forbidden love is often at the center; a tale of two lovers separated one to live in the mountains and one to live by the sea. This is why both the Naupaka Kuahiwi (mountain) and the Naupaka Kahakai (beach) bloom only half flowers. It is said that if both halves are picked and joined, it will rain a reminder of the love that could not be.
