The hibiscus was used for many things by the Islanders. The bark of the hibiscus branches, when peeled away left a pith which when dried was used to make the skirts for dancing. Y'know the ones that look like grass. Not grass but hibiscus insides. They could also be used to make fire if two were rubbed together. Here Eloise shows how they make a fashionable seeing eye glass, also.
