Nothing says summer quite like sunflowers, and with all their associations with sunshine, it’s no surprise that sunflowers are considered a very positive flowers.

Did you know there are many types of sunflower? 🌻 While Helianthus Annus is the classic yellow we all love, there are actually 70 diverse species in the Helianthus family native to North and Central America! There are also red and white varieties. Sunflowers don’t always have the typical shape either - some have ruffled, fluffy blooms, like the Orange Sun sunflower.

Our vendors proudly offer a diverse array of sunflower varieties sourced from California and beyond.

Beyond flowers, the Original Los Angeles Flower Market reflects the tale of immigration and the American dream.

Early on, the market became a haven for immigrant families seeking opportunities in the United States. Many of the sellers and producers were immigrants who, for the first time after arriving in America, purchased land and transformed it into a land of opportunity by growing flowers.

July is American Grown Flowers & Foliage Month, and we want to thank all the local growers who contribute to Los Angeles’ blooming landscape in the flower market. To celebrate this month, we encourage you to buy locally grown and sourced flowers and foliage in support of our local growers and farmers. These growers contribute to established floral traditions and practices that have been passed down through generations, shaping the OLAFM into a universally recognized landmark.
