I had not visited the tropical flower page since I returned from Kona, I enjoyed your little video of the garden, and the new plumeria photo's are Very nice!.To note: After our arrival to Kailua Kona airport,The first thing that I wanted to do,was to purchase a Lei, so, my first stop was one of the vendors at the airport,where I paid $9.00 for an orchid Lei. Tom and I proceeded to fetch our rental car and headed to the Kona Village Resort(North?<-yes?),I spotted the sign (a bit worn looking)- Plumeria Lei's- $4.00,The little self service place had a fridge packed full of a colorful variety of Plumeria and Orchid Lei's for less than 1/2 the price! I even brought one home to press!
