I love this song by Beat Boopers Children. After I heard it for the first time, I was hooked. It’s even got hula dancer!

I like the flowers, I like the daffodils, I like the mountains, I like the rolling hills, I like the fire side, when the lights are low – bum-di-yada, bum-di-yada, bum-di-yada, bum-di-yada…

We will be closed on Sunday, the 4th of July. We will open 8am – 12pm on 5th of July. I can’t wait to celebrate our freedom day with family and friends, gather for a barbeque at Waikiki Beach. Watch the kids play with water and sand. And of course, the fire work. Enjoy and be safe.

We made our grave site delivery to Diamond Head Cemetary on Memorial Day and boy, what a sight.  Graves were doted with flowers and flags.  I would say the graves are almost as decorated with flowers as much to during Easter or Chinese Ching Ming.

We had a special request to re-create this flower bouquet below.  It is a bouquet of stephanotis, orange and pink rose with hypericum.   It is not made of real flowers as you can see…..

And here is what we came up with.  It is just as unreal as the not so real one.

Did you know the lei that  you purchase from Sweet Blossoms Hawaii are delivered to the shop by bus, carpool or hybrid?  Yes, that’s another way to reduce our reliance on fuel, reduce delivery cost and our price offered to you.  Sure it is a triple win situation.  We love it. Hope  you like our low lei price too.

Lei giving (piling) is a common a scene at graduations.  Consider lei with big visual impact such as the single orchids, carnation, and plumeria that are big in size and bright in color. Of course price are very reasonable for the tuberose, heea, sea grapes and ti-leaves lei but with less visual impact.  Then again, it is not about visual impact with lei giving.  It’s about sharing the aloha and giving congratulation.  Have fun at the graduation.  Take plenty pictures, okay.
