Plumeria flowers in Hawaii
Though it’s a popular flower to include in garlands for leis in Hawaii, the plumeria bloom is not native to the islands. Nevertheless, the big petals and pleasant fragrance make plumerias hard to resist if you’re making a lei for Lei Day, Hawaii’s island-specific version of May Day. Since the 1920s, Lei Day has been a flower-centered celebration of Hawaiian culture.
