of children.They adorn the wardrobes andhair of Hawaiis women in addition to forming themotifs for fabrics ranging from subdued evening wearto aloha shirts and dresses.At festive occasions and towelcome visitors,they are given asleis accompaniedbykisses on both cheeks.In arrangements,they adorntables and become vital additions to every happy gath-ering.And rare is an island home that does not haveflowery plants blossoming in the yard or on the lanai.  \nThe first arrivals brought by the early Polynesianswere the delicate,feathery lehua;lacy coral hibiscus;tiny rain lilies;brilliant hau,changing from yellow atdawn to red at sunset;small white flowers ofipu;brightorange kou;and dainty pink field orchids.  \nShowy exotic travelers,quite at home inHawaii,arethe flaming torch ginger;the brilliant red,pink andorange anthuriums;radiant,ruffled,purple and lav-ender orchids;fluorescent heliconia;and orange birdof paradise,poised forflight.Plus the perfumed,lumi-nescent whites—plumeria,pikake,tiare tahiti,tube-rose and ginger.  \nThese are only a few of the species and varieties offlowers found throughout the islands and in some ofthe formal parks and gardens that
