Did you know loulu are Hawaiʻi’s only native palms? These iconic plants are under threat from the invasive coconut rhinoceros beetle, and we need your help to celebrate and protect them. We are seeking loulu-themed artwork in any visual medium that will be showcased at Loulu Love Fest on Saturday, May 16 and online!
Need some inspiration? Come see a few different species of loulu at our Lāwaʻi Gardens Visitor Center during regular open hours (Tues–Sat, 9 am–4 pm). Entrance to our Visitor Center Garden is free and you are welcome to explore at your own pace. Download our helpful guide for more information. Bring your art supplies, take photos, or simply enjoy these special palms up close and in person!
