Suzanna is the nicest. I was looking for a plant for a stupid project and she was very helpful. She even recommended OTHER nurseries that might help me. I'll make sure to keep them in mind for my other projects!
I LOVE this nursery for California native plants. It's easy to get to although parking can be hairy. The selection is lovely. The plants are very healthy and the prices cannot be beat. They stock varieties that are hard to find, and well-adapted to the East Bay. The staff are incredibly knowledgeable and sweet. I've been shopping here for almost a decade and everything I've put into the ground has flourished just remember to do your homework and make sure you're planting the right one for the location you want ;) You can't blame others if you've made bad choices about plant location. I appreciate that they stock plenty of plants in 4" pots, because who has time to dig a gallon+ size hole!? You can go on their website to check out their current inventory. Very helpful for planning.
What a GREAT place to find natives! Staff is knowledgeable and helpful. The prices are very reasonable. I have high hopes for this Howard McMinn Manzanita from Oaktown that I just put in.
Really neat little nursery and helpful volunteers! I found several hard to track down natives and a lot of fun smaller plants, as well as many studry shrubs and trees! If I had more space in the car I would have spent way too much! Fun stickers and also gift items for sale here as well, not just plants. A lovely space that I hope to visit again soon
This is my favorite nursery! They have a great selection of local native plants that are also healthy, well-sourced, and good price. The staff are super friendly and knowledgeable. I love their online inventory and order system; they will pull and hold orders, and it’s easy to get there and park. Their demonstration gardens are beautiful and helpful too.
