How to Care for your Lei
Our Hawaiian Orchid leis and flowers can last 5-7 days and longer if cared for properly. They must remain in a relatively cool temperature range 50 ° F – 55 ° F. You may fill a spray bottle with water and mist the lei if it looks soft or just lightly sprinkle water on them with your hand, then place in a Ziploc bag and/or plastic bag and place in the refrigerator or cooler. This method will revive the flowers and can work in as little as a few hours but we recommend storing them like this overnight.
