NURSERY SALES

PLANT SALES WILL RETURN IN THE FALL

Our Native Plant Nursery primarily grows for local restoration projects, but we are excited to offer a selection of our native plants for sale to the community starting this fall. Lots of native plants go dormant in the summer time. They have the best chance of growing when we plant them with the first rains in the fall. In order to encourage planting at a wetter, more seasonally appropriate time and to allow us to focus on other nursery processes, such as seed collection and propagation, we are closing down public plant sales for the summer. Please check back in the fall to place your order.

Please note our nursery is not open for in-person shopping. Plant orders must be placed online and picked up outside our nursery located in Palo Alto's Foothills Nature Preserve, open 7 days a week 8am to sunset (see the Preserve website for exact hours). We will provide detailed directions to the pick up location once your order is placed.

We also sell plants at select in-person plant sales organized by the California Native Plant Society, Santa Clara Valley Chapter.

INVENTORY

Collection Zones

We grow plants from seeds collected in specific watersheds to retain biodiversity, which means these plants are better suited to their specific microclimate and support local insects. The list below describes where the seed for the plant was collected.
