K. C. has something to say about
Nature
which he personally considers . . "Not
an adversary to conquer and destroy, but a storehouse of infinite knowledge
. . . linking man to all things past and present."
Haleakala National Park - The most beautiful
and unusual plant growing in the park highland is the silversword. Living
in and around Haleakala Crater, it may spend from 5 to 20 years before
finally developing a stalk bearing a large cluster of flowers. A member
of the sunflower family, the silversword produces hundreds of seeds.
