About this title

Synopsis

The Hawaiian flower lei is known
worldwide as a symbol of love,
friendship, good luck, admiration,
and embodies the aloha spirit. For
centuries, visitors arriving and
leaving the Islands have received
colorful and fragrant flower leis as
gifts. Today, leis are given to
friends, lovers, relatives, teachers,
coworkers, and coaches to
celebrate all of life s events such
as birthdays, anniversaries,
graduations, greetings and
farewells, or simply to express
aloha for others.
Hawai i s Flower Leis is a
colorful, pictorial guide to some
of Hawai i s most popular leis.
Vivid photographs and
descriptions help readers to
identify the flowers by common,
scientific and Hawaiian names.
The lei associated with each
island is also introduced along
with lei-making methods, needles,
and insights on the symbolism of
the flowers, and the preservation
and storage of leis.
