- Annual poinsettia sale rescheduled for Dec. 3
(11/22/22) BATON ROUGE, La. — The annual poinsettia sale has been rescheduled, but the beauty of the holidays will still be on full display Saturday, Dec. 3.
The date is the only change, as the time remains from 9 a.m. to noon at the LSU AgCenter Botanic Gardens at Burden as this year’s poinsettia crop is presented.
More than 20 varieties of locally grown poinsettias will be on display and available for sale at the Botanic Gardens’ greenhouse.
The Botanic Gardens evaluates poinsettia varieties developed by breeders worldwide, and those are the varieties that will be sold at the annual sale.
Make sure to arrive on time so you don’t miss out on these beautiful varieties of poinsettias. A limited number of each variety will be available. The cost of plants starts at $12.
The sale will be held at the LSU AgCenter Botanic Gardens at 4560 Essen Lane in Baton Rouge. Admission is free and open to the public.
