Best one stop destination in all of LA for everything California native, related to plants, Landscaping responsibly and conservation of resources. This place is one of a kind, must visit. Must donate!
A must see whenever you are in the area - a lot more than just a nursery. Friendly and knowledgeable people who love what they are doing!
One of the best places to go to to buy and learn about plants, especially California native plants. I bought one of my favorite plants here years ago!
Trying to find out when and where California's poppy fields are in Southern California ? What is the time the California poppy's blooming ?
Love a place that cares about the history of our native habitat!!
We had the most amazing time here. We saw so many different plants and learned so much. The staff was so informative and friendly. We had the pleasure of learning a lot about Mr. Payne. My daughter is doing a report on him for school that's why we came. We bought a lot of great items in the store. We are coming back again soon.
