Post-1950 Hawaii: Perhaps the most influential Hawaii breeder of the 1950s, Augie Miller is awarded an American Hibiscus Society honorable membership in
1961. His hybrids are sought for their beauty and vigor by fellow breeders around the globe. Traveling the world in the early 1960s, breeder Ross
H. Gast finds Miller and other Hawal'i hybrids in far-flung locales including
Fiji, Australia, Kenya, and South Africa.
Born in Honolulu, popular HawaiI breeder Charles Nil begins hybridizing in the 1950s. Nil quickly becomes well known throughout the islands for swapping and sharing hybrids with Augie Miller, Hideo Asato, and fellow Hawaii breeders.
Today the family owned and
operated Charles NIl Nursery in Honolulu features many of
his hybrids
