Our gardens have been a welcome respite during this time of lockdown and we are very pleased to offer everyone some great new plant choices for spring planting.

Locally-Sourced Native Seeds are offered in addition to live plants.

Local Flowering Shrubs provide resources for pollinators, birds, and other creatures. When we think about providing for pollinators, bold and beautiful wildflowers might come to mind. Our landscaping shrubs and trees are equally essential, however, and provide critical sources of nectar and pollen, particularly for native bees. Many of these bees emerge early in the spring and depend on the early-blooming shrubs such as manzanita and ceanothus.

Plant Replacement List developed by Marin Chapter developed for homeowners who have been required to remove fire-prone plants from their property. All these species offer great choices for filling the gaps left by plant removal as well as increasing the biodiversity in your yard. We will offer many of these plants in 1-gallon size; gardeners interested in larger sizes should order them through the four nurseries we list with the Plant Replacement List.
