When we filmed here in 2024… The Tanouyes were so kind to allow me to choose anything I wanted- from their amazing array of Hawaiian Grown Flowers- so I dug in…believe me when I tell you- that there is so much to choose from and Green Point Nurseries has the most incredible Flower and Foliage varieties and an incredible inventory… it’s stunning to see it on display- because Hawaiian Flowers don’t need typical refrigeration we see on the Mainland… so all the flowers they harvest are setting in an amazing array of colors and varieties- all the while maintaining the optimum temperature and humidity that Mother Nature delivers at their doorstep in Hawaii.
This - the “Spectabulous” Shampoo Ginger- one of the incredible Varieties the Tanouye Family offers- at Green Point Nurseries in Hilo Hawaii… Learn more at their Website- www.GreenPointNursery.com - and Watch the Video featuring this Gorgeous Flower Here!
For this arrangement I was, delighted, honored and so grateful to select these amazing flowers… I started by Choosing a gorgeous Caribaeaous Heliconia- that paired perfectly with the “Spectabulous” Shampoo Ginger- it’s a deep burgundy color- and it’s jaw dropping… “Spectabulous” is the perfect variety name for this Incredible Flower… I also chose a NEW yet to be named- Anthurium… I also select GIANT Monstera Leaves- that are the biggest I’ve even seen… and some Ti Tops- which are the entire stem of a Ruby Ti Leaf Plant… and of course the trademark Anthurium Foliage that Green Point Nurseries is know for… I’m like a kid in a candy store- with all the Beautiful Tropical Flowers from our Friends at Green Point Nursery.
