Our in-person sale was successful in spite of the welcome early downpours.   People braved the elements to browse the plants that were crowded on their display tables; many of the plants were showing beautiful fall colors.

We have sold out of a few species (e.g., silver lupine, redbud, and matilija poppy), but there are still many plants that need to find their way into your landscape.  We still have a large variety of sages and buckwheats, and unique offerings like incense-cedar, Sierra bladdernut, and Nevin’s barberry.   And there might even be a few California brickellbush left!
