Lei is the name of the famous flower necklace made in Hawaii. Hawaiian leis are vibrant and colorful wreaths or garlands worn around the neck. They feature fresh tropical flowers but, on a wider interpretation, it can also mean a series of items strung together so that they can be worn. A lei is presented to someone who is arriving or leaving. Therefore, it is a welcome or farewell gift and a way of expressing aloha.
