UPDATE 3/24/2024

Dear Valued Customers,

In response to the numerous inquiries and expressions of goodwill, we are relieved to announce that Peter has been discharged from the Straub ICU and burn unit. He is now with his daughter and her family near San Diego, where he is steadily progressing on his road to recovery. At this time, any plans for a return to Hilo are premature as Peter’s priority is to restore his bodily health. We will provide more updates in due course. Thank you for your continued support.

Sincerely, Real Flower Jewelry

NEWEST JEWELRY COLLECTION

Why do we call this collection, Phoenix Jewelry?

In mid-summer 2018 the Kilauea volcanic eruption destroyed all our nursery sources for our large blooming specialized orchids requiring acreage to grow. To regrow them to provide replacement flowers would take over three years. We could not wait, nor was there the ground space available as the nurseries are now under 60 feet of rock-hard lava. Thus, we sought to develop very different small potted orchids. These are readily portable, not rooted in the ground as before. This allows them to be removed quickly should danger loom again. They also take much less space to grow. Thus, these beautiful miniatures have arisen as a new product for us, like the Phoenix, rising from the fire and ashes of the volcano.
