Kenikeni Lei |
| This was one of the most
prized leis during the "Boat Days" of the late 1800's. When the
Steamer ships arrived in port, visitors were greeted and adorned
with this most "expensive" and fragrant lei. At the time, this flowered
lei cost one dime - a fortune for those days. Hence, the kenikeni
is known as the Ten Cent Flower. This 2-inch long, 5-petal, tubular
blossom changes color from white to yellow and finally to orange.
It takes almost 45 flowers to create one circular lei. |

STORAGE: Keep dry and cool. Place in an
air-filled plastic bag. Float the bag with the lei in a container
of cool water. Do not refrigerate. Lei life is approximately three
days. |
