Festival des Fleurs de Louisiane

April 14, 2012

8:00am - 5:00pm

Blackham Coliseum
Johnston Street
Lafayette, Louisiana

Festival des Fleurs de Louisiane is the premier Garden Show and Sale for the Acadiana area. This event evolved from a small group of individuals interested in organizing a fund-raiser to provide the Ira Nelson Horticulture Center with additional funding.

The Festival is held in the spring each year. The sales booth area provides visitors the opportunity to purchase the newest plants on the market, as well as those plant selections that remain consistent favorites year after year. Not only are plants available for sale, but also items such as tools, supplies, books, pottery, garden ornaments and more. What makes our event unique is that all vendors are required to sell only garden-related items. If it is for or about the garden, you will find it here.

In addition to the sales area there is also a display area by local plant organizations such as The Lafayette Garden Club, the Bonsai Society of Acadiana, and the Acadian Orchid Society.

For more information about the show or being a vendor, call Billy Welsh at 337-482-5339 or email welsh@louisiana.edu.
