Our Escondido location is now permanently closed. We appreciate all the support and kind words from everyone that came out during the final weeks. Thanks for supporting us for 16 years. Our California native plants are still available online. Keep planting California natives!

Our nursery has a friendly staff and native plants for the  butterflies and birds. The plants have signs. Come explore a native plant nursery for Southern California. - grid24_12

Take a date along that likes plants. You can cruise and check out native plants for a couple of hours. Many do.

Looking across the nursery first thing in the morning.
Penstemon spectablis, Showy Monkey flower with an Anna Hummingbird. Hard to beleive this used to be common in the Santa Monica Mtns, Los Angeles, Pasadena, Eagle Rock  and most of Southern California. - grid24_12

Southern California gardens can support all sorts of
native plants.

Here is a little rock garden at the Escondido Native plant nursery. The soil there was an old trucking yard. Soil is so compacted you can't dig it. We used a jack hammer to dig the fence posts. California native plants like the Penstemon heterophyllus, Dudleya cymosa, Mock Heather, and Sulfur Buckwheat seem to do fine.
