Summary

Description

Neleau, Neneleau, or Hawaiian sumac Anacardiaceae Endemic to the Hawaiian Islands Hoʻomaluhia, Oʻahu

A natural population growing on the edge of the Hoʻomaluhia Gardens.

Neleau was used in making calabashes by early Hawaiians. In more modern times, the light but tough, yellowish-gray wood of neleau was once used as saddle trees on ranches and to make plows and yokes for oxen by ranchers. The wood is described as yellowish-gray with dark resinous streaks, light weight, coarse-textured, and tough.
