Hawaii Baby Canvas Tote Bag "Lehua&Ohia's Baby with the Ulu (breadfruit)"
Mina poured her prayers into this design, hoping to make the dreams of women who desire to have a baby come true. She incorporated the symbolism of Ulu (breadfruit) and the Kanji character 子授, which means pregnancy.
=The legend of Hawaii, the Ohia tree, and the Lehua blossom=
The legend says that one day Pele met a handsome warrior named Ohia and she asked him to marry her. Ohia, however, had already pledged his love to Lehua. Pele was furious when Ohia turned down her marriage proposal, so she turned Ohia into a twisted tree. Lehua was heartbroken, of course. The gods took pity on Lehua and decided it was an injustice to have Ohia and Lehua separated. So, they turned Lehua into a flower on the Ohia tree so that the two lovers would be forever joined together. So remember, Hawaiian folklore says that if you pluck this flower you are separating the lovers, and that day it will rain.
