Haleakala Lobelia- Lobelia grayana

            Lobelia grayana only occurs on the slopes of Haleakala volcano on the Hawaiian island of Maui. The scarlet i'iwi, a Hawaiian honeycreeper, visits these blossoms, dipping its sickle-shaped beak in for the nectar. The bird and the bloom are a perfect match. The plant itself is a rare sight these days.  Feral pigs, goats, and deer have nibbled and trampled them to near extinction. The plant is now restricted to remote bogs and steep gulches.
