Hawaii '17: Some Plants from Volcano NP

Volcano NP has some unique foliage. One minute you are in arid desert, the next in a lava wasteland of nothing, and the next a tropical fern forest. It's just weird. But cool. 




The ferns were really cool. The new growth on this type is red and they unfurl.

The Thurston lava tube. The lights were out, so it was a very dark, short walk.
