The early bird gets the--flower!
The Los Angeles Flower District (700 block of Wall Street) is the premier resource for growers, shippers and wholesalers. Since 1913 Wall Street and the immediate surrounding area have become the "grand central" to the Southern California flower trade.
The general public is also welcome, but you gotta get up EARLY!
Non trade hours are Mon.,Wed, Fri 8am - 12 noon, Tues., Thurs and Saturday . 6am - noon. (No griping--the growers arrive a 2am!) Admission is $2.00 per person Monday -Friday. $1 on Saturdays.
There are two ample parking structures available. The American Florist Exchange lot can be entered from the west side of San Julian Street, between 7th and 8th streets. The Southern California Flower Market parking lot entrance is located on the east side of Maple Avenue between 7th and 8th street.
