Title: Fortunato Teho’s HAWAII GARDENS.
This book contains a biography of Fortunato Teho written by his granddaughter, Corinne, and a selection of his garden writings that was left unfinished at his passing in 1986. His notes on Hawaiian horticulture were ahead of his time—and may now be called “sustainable gardening.” Fortunato Teho ‘s influence on home gardening throughout the islands was unparalleled from the late 1940s to 1980s through his newspaper columns, radio, television broadcasts and best selling book Plants of Hawaii—How to Grow Them. He was also the first naturalized Filipino American citizen in Hawaii and the first Filipino graduate of the University of Hawaii.
