Aloha Kakou,

It is with a heavy heart that we close up our storefront from 3/24/20 thru 4/30/20 per the Hawaii State Govt mandate in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

We wish you all the serenity and courage to overcome the hardships now facing our communities across Hawaii, the Mainland and around the world. We look forward to reopening and seeing all of you by May 2020. By then we are hoping for a full bloom of Pikake and to see the beginning of Pakalana season. Puakenikeni season is already on and we plan on stocking fragrant local and Tahitian flowers then. In spite of cancelled / suspended graduation ceremonies, please consider going BIG with gifting Ohana and friends graduating with our Local Style and Glamour Haku! This year alone we have taken pride in changing up our inventory and sourcing more local flowers, including from both the Big Island and Maui, for cherished occasions: weddings, appreciation gifts, hoolaulea, hoike, celebrations of life, birthdays, photoshoots and corporate / school events. We look forward to continuing to share our repertoire of floral designs and lei variety when we return!

E malama i ke kino. E malama pono,

Cindy's Lei Shoppe manager Karen Lee was interviewed by KHON2 News yesterday to comment on limited supply of various flowers that we string into lei as we approach graduation season

Make sure to have a second option in mind if you plan on ordering lei in the next few months. April and May mark the peak of lei season for florists. Many in high demand, will be hard to come by.

Aloha Kakahiaka! Check us out in CNN's Great Big Story series which touches on some of the past tradition of lei. We are featured alongside talented lei making artisans Bill Char and Meleana Estes.

One important takeaway Cindy's manager Karen Lee says is this: "You know that if you got a lei or gifted a lei you had a connection with Hawaii"

In Hawaii, there’s no better way to say and share aloha than with a lei. The floral craft, which dates back to traditional times, may seem straightforward to...
