....... don't exist. Except the timber ones - unless things have changed since I was last there in June/July 2003. My husband and I were quite taken back by the both the women and men who commented on the artificial hibiscus I'd wear in my hair. "Ahhh beautiful" they'd say. Even men passing by us would comment. A Balinese lady informed us that they do not have artificial flowers like mine in Bali so they were a point of great curiousity. Cantik may have been to referring to the fresh flower markets in Denpasar but other than the timber flowers - I doubt very much that you will find the kind you are looking for. I'm sure you will find many other items that will take your fancy though.
