history
history
Dendrobium orchids are native to Asia and the Pacific Islands. There are a thousand species of Dendrobiums. Some were used exclusively by orchidists in Hawai‘i, France, and Thailand to create hybrids that are still used.

Straight stringing method:
kui pololei
This is the most common method of lei making. The flowers are pierced lengthwise, through the center, using a long steel needle. The flowers are held together by a single string.

Early Hawaiians didn’t have steel needles, so they used a piece of the smooth round midrib of the coconut leaf or stems of flowers from native grasses. For string, they used fibers from the native olona shrub or the hala tree.

This was a honeymoon surprise for our friends. They weren’t expecting it so I was nervous they would walk right passed the leis. But they said there was a sign with their name on it saying HAPPY HONEYMOON so they knew it was for them. They were so excited to tell us about it, but they didn’t know it was from us! lol so when we told them, they were thrilled.

My mom went to Kauai with her sister for their first trip together. I wanted to make it special, so I ordered them leis with a card message. It was sweet because the lei greeter took a picture of them with their sign in that very moment. My mom sent me the picture to say thank you. I felt like I was there <3

We island hopped around Hawaii. When we landed in Honolulu first, I saw people getting leis. So I booked a lei greeting for our next stop in Kauai. Everyone was so surprised and it was such a hit, I booked another lei greeting for our 3rd stop on Maui!

The leis looked just like the photos! Very satisfied with the freshness of the flowers.
