Chestnut - kahi māla hoʻolālā papa. He mea kupanaha ka pua ʻana. Ua like nā pua me nā kukui kukui me nā keʻokeʻo a me nā melemele-ʻulaʻula e kū ana ma nā lālā lāʻau. He fluffy a mālie loa lākou, ma ke ʻano o ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana, like lākou me nā māla liʻiliʻi. ʻO ka inoa ʻepekema ʻo ka lāʻau ʻo American Chestnut a i ʻole Scalloped Chestnut.
He hua kēia lāʻau. Hiki ke hiki i ka kanakolukumamālima mau kiʻekiʻe ma ke kiʻekiʻe, a hiki i ka ʻāpana ʻōpala ke hiki i hoʻokahi a me ka hapa mika. ʻO Chestnut kahi ʻelele kūleʻa o nā kumulāʻau me kahi lei aliʻi e hoʻonani ʻia ana, kahi i hoʻohaʻahaʻa ʻia ʻia a hoʻopulu ʻia me nā lālā ikaika. ʻO ka ʻili he hina hina a ʻulaʻula paha, i koho ʻia me nā kiʻi hohonu. ʻO ka ʻōkohu pahu kohu he nui, nui, ʻulaʻula, uhi ʻia me ka wai palaka, i kuhikuhi ʻia ma ka hopena.
Loaʻa i nā lau Chestnut kahi ʻano like ʻole, nani loa: i kuhikuhi ʻia me kahi kumu asymmetric like-wedge. ʻIke ʻia me nā wāwae hemp a me nā lau. E hoʻohuli i ka melemele a hāʻule, no nā mea aloha i nā mea kanu kūloko. E hōʻea aku nā inflorescences i ka iwakālua kenimita o ka lōʻihi, ke kāne, ka wahine ma ke kumu a ma ka mea liʻiliʻi: ʻo 2-3 wale nō. Hoʻopau ka Chestnut i Iulai.
Kūpono maoli ka hua ʻōpala, he mālamalama ikaika ikaika kukui (ʻā) a ʻehiku kenimimita ka lōʻihi, he lahilahi nā pōkole, akā hiki ke hoʻopōʻino ʻia inā e kiola ʻia lākou e kekahi e like me nā keiki hōkeo makemake i ka pāʻani pāʻani. I kēlā me kēia spine i loaʻa nā huaʻai o ke kala kala ʻulaʻula me kahi mea momona maikaʻi i loko. Kūkulu ʻia ka noho ʻana o ka pahu kiki o ʻAmelika ʻAmelika a me Kelemania, a hoʻonani hoʻi i nā māka a me nā dachas o Lūkia.
I ka makahiki, ulu nā kiki i ka hapalua mika. Kūleʻa nui ka lāʻau a ulu a hiki i ke kanaono makahiki, a laila aia ka hāʻule i ka ulu a me ka makahiki he kanaiwa ʻoi aku ka lāʻau e ʻoki ʻia.
ʻO ka kumulāʻau kai ʻoluʻolu loa i ka hau a me ka hau hilahila o ka lewa, kahi kūpono ia no ke kanu ʻana i ke kūlanakauhale. Nui nā ʻano kūpono no ke noho ʻana ma Lūkia, a ua hauʻoli lākou i ka poʻe e noho nei i ka ʻāina me kā lākou pua nani i nā māla.
He mea kūpono ʻole ia he huaʻai momona nā hua o ʻAmelika huaʻai, ma kekahi mau ʻāina ua manaʻo ʻia he mea momona maoli ʻole ia.
ʻO nā lāʻau Chestnut he mau waiwai koʻikoʻi e pili ana i ka hana ʻana i nā lako a me nā mea hana pono. Mai ka kumulāʻau lāʻau, loaʻa nā tannins.
