1917 Nature 20 Sept. 57/2 One of the introduced trees of great economic importance is the algaroba tree (Prosopis juliflora) or kiawe, as the Hawaiians call it. It is found in a belt on the lowlands along the shores of all the islands, and occupies the soil almost to the exclusion of other plants. The pods are very nutritious, and are eagerly eaten by all kinds of stock. Its flowers furnish an excellent quality of honey.
