The verdant slopes of French Polynesia host an impressive array of plants and trees, many of which are endemic to the islands. The dense rainforests are dominated by species such as the Mape tree, or Tahitian chestnut, whose leaves are traditionally used for skirts in cultural dances. Among the trees, ferns, and flowers, the 'ohi'a'ai (mountain apple) can also be found, offering both fruit and wood for local use. The botanical diversity is a reflection of the islands' volcanic soil and tropical climate, creating a unique ecosystem where each plant plays a role in supporting the local wildlife and the islanders' way of life.
