Cut flower garden- which plants grow best in the tropics?

I live on a Caribbean island. I'd like to put in a cut flower garden so I can do flower arrangements. Right now I have a lot of bird of paradise flowers, but I'm looking for some variety. I'd like to order some seeds from the US, and pick up whatever I can find locally. But I'm not sure what holds over well in a vase.

I live on Maui, and Gingers, red, pink, and blue, do excellent here, and when I cut them the flowers will last a week or two. Try gingers, of course birds, orchids grow great here,just to name a few, but the best one is the ginger plant. I love those big red flowers. Also haleconia's grow excellent, and make beautiful flower arrangements.
Reply:send me some seeds
Reply:I am not knowledgable about tropical soils, temps, etc.; but if I lived in the tropics I would get some zinnia (annual) seeds %26amp; pot them up . I think zinnias are one of the best cut flower for a vase %26amp; come in many varieties, colors, shapes %26amp; sizes. The only thing lacking with this flower is it has no scent, so I don't know if you are looking for just color , but these would do well %26amp; are fairly easy to grow, have very sturdy stems %26amp; long lasting blooms.
