The hawaiian island of Moloka'i recognizes the pua kukui (Aleurites moluccana) as the official island lei material. Pua kukui is the white blossom of the candlenut tree (the fruit of this plant was used for candles by early settlers, hence it's common name). Kukui is also the official state tree of Hawaii. Each Island in Hawaii designates an official island color and flower or lei material.
