My only source of them are that I bring them home from Trader Vic's after enjoying a Tiki Puka Puka at the restaurant and reuse them. They keep in the refrigerator for a few days. I put them in a little cup with water, supported by wax paper with a hole in the middle so the petals don't get soaked and deteriorate. I happen to work next door to a nationwide flower shipper and they sell fifty gardenias for $45. If I ever have a luau I know where to get them!
