Fragrant Tuberose has a lovely scent that is likened to the sweet aroma of a gardenia. The single short stem Tuberose lei is strung through the center of the flower and is often entwined around other leis (such as Maile, Ti Leaf, roses, crownflower, etc.) The difference between the short stem tuberose lei and the single tuberose lei, is the lack of a stem. This lei requires 35% more tuberose than the single style tuberose lei. The leimakers cut the stems off prior to sewing and as a result, the lei uses more tuberose, looks fuller, and has a pretty flower-y effect. This lei is often layered with several strands for a fuller, more sophisticated look. This lei is a popular choice for its apparent beauty and delicious fragrance.
Care: Refrigerate in sealed plastic bag or container. Keep dry and handle lei as little as possible before use.
Please note that purchasing fragrant flowers such as Tuberose, Ginger, Pikake, Plumeria, and Carnations during the summer months is done at your own risk, particularly for shipments to the Midwest and East Coast. These flowers are highly sensitive to heat and can be affected by elevated temperatures during transit. While we take every precaution to package and ship them as carefully as possible, we cannot guarantee their condition when temperatures soar.
