I would love to go back to Hawaii, and some day I will.  The islands are
beautiful, I think my favorite was the big island.  We went to some
nurseries around Hilo, and up to the volcanos.  I also liked Kauaii the
trip up the river to the wedding spot is nice even tho there are reported
to be pirana in the river.  I can't give you specific nurseries but there
are lots of them, I still have a couple of plumerias from my trip almost 20
yrs ago.  Maui was ok, but also touristy.  Tell your mom to have a
wonderful trip, I wish it  was me.  Jane
