Description: Measurements were taken of 25 exotic tree species planted in 1959 in the Waiakea Arboretum near Hilo, Hawaii. After 5 years, some species show good survival and growth, but seven pines failed to survive. All plantings have suffered from shallow soil, and competition from wild vegetation.
