Arctostaphylos glauca Ramona Manzanita
Identification
Description
A really glorious Big Berry manzanita from the San Vicente/Ramona area. The mother plant was growing out of a rocky out cropping next to a golf course. Red bark, a very open form with very clean glossy foliage. The plant looks almost like an artificial manzanita. Use as a specimen with lower green manzanitas and ceanothi under it, or as an elegant eight to ten foot hedge in a chaparral planting. The soils are naturally high in pH the Ramona area and this one grows ok in soils of pH 7.8, and might even be ok in pH 8. Who would have guessed that the pH in the heavy chaparral of interior San Diego is higher than much of the San Joaquin Valley?
