Ordering plumerias

Thinking about ordering some plumerias for the GF and I hear Hawaii has the best of these plants. So far, a brief internet search came up with these two sites for ordering the flowers:

http://www.plumeria.info/default.aspx
http://tropicnature.net/catalog/inde...ain_page=index

any other suggestions for an online florist? any recommendations on which kind of plumeria? TIA fellas.

I don't know of any online florists, but you can check (maybe google it) Watanabe Florist and see if they ship. Or, another good florist I've used in the past is Beretania florist as well. Was this for her B-day or something? If it is, tell her you wanted to get her flowers for her B-day, and fly her here to pick them yourselves. That would be fun! I have a tree right outside my house.

Hahha, good luck w/ that one buddy. but a month after Vday, it's her bday. dammit, anniversary & her bday should be on Xmas. Hell, they should toss Vday near Xmas too, get it all in one hit! Hehe.

Thx for the suggestions though fellas!

Buwahhhaaahhhaaa! You know I had a lot of help with that one. I'm not physically, or mentally for that matter, capable of doing that whole deal on my own!

See the problem with Plumeria is it doesn't have a stem. They grow on trees. To make an arrangement seems like it would be difficult. Once they are picked they don't last that long.

It's suck when your anniversary/her birthday is closed to a speical date like x'mas/v day...etc. You have to think hard to impress her two times in a 2 weeks span... =(
