 Bingabing Trees
These trees are known for choking out other nearby plants and trees, and have been known to get up to
30 feet.On the island of Hawai’i, bingabing was seeded from airplanes along with many other weedy
forestry species near Hilo after a fire. Today, it lines roadsides, gulches, and disturbed forests in the
vicinity. Its large leaf structure creates a dense growth that can crowd and shade out other vegetation.

Hawai'i Island, Oahu, Maui, and Molokai. In recent years, there have even
been a few found either dead or captured alive on Kauai. ... Mongoose are

Hamakua Coast in 1883
