| We are no longer open on Saturdays for the rest of the year. When Spring 2006 is here we will be open again on Saturday mornings. |
| Our Sales Policy |
| We would like to remind our landscaper customers that we are not open to the public. If your clients wish to visit the nursery, please call us first and let us know they are coming. Because we are wholesale we do not offer retail services like consultation and advice. The best thing for you to do is accompany your clients on their visit. |

Euryops virgineus Honey Euryops doesn’t look much like its more common cousin, Euryops pectinatus viridis. Instead of large yellow daisies, it is covered with tiny fuzzy bright yellow daisies with a honey scent. Its bright green leaves are fine, soft and needle-like. Grows quickly to 4’ x 4’. Plant in full sun with moderate water. Tolerates heat, cold, and being sheared into a ball. Native to South Africa. Starts blooming now to give you a bright splash all winter. |

Correas Correa is a great genus of shrubs with the misleading common name of Australian Fuchsia. Unlike true Fuchsias, they thrive in dry, poor gravelly soil with minimal water. They are a good choice for dry shade under oaks. You can see them surviving in the parking lot at Albertson’s on 41st. That’s tough! Cute little bell shaped flowers fall through spring. They don’t even really look like fuchsias. Correa ‘Carmine Bells’: Low, spreading growth 2’ tall and 8’ wide. Olive-green leaves and deep red flowers. Correa pulchella: Brighter green leaves and pink flowers. |

| Carpenteria californica Bush Anemone We have a fabulous crop of this most fabulous California native shrub. It is hard to find and difficult to propagate. Unlike some native shrubs, it tolerates garden conditions such as disturbed soil and summer water. If you plant one now you can feel smug in the spring when everyone covets its fragrant, heavenly white flowers. It is a handsome shrub even when not blooming, with glossy dark green leaves and pale bark. Grows slowly to 4’-6’ tall and wide. Give a little shade in hot areas. Needs no supplemental water once established. We have the cultivar ‘Elizabeth’, which blooms more abundantly than the wild type. |

Tibouchina ‘compakta’ It is still a mystery to us how big the Compact Princess Flower will eventually grow. Plant one and let us know what happens! This is a new plant for us. It flowers later and less abundantly than the usual Tibouchina urvilleana, but its foliage stays better looking and its growth habit is denser. |

Ericas Heaths burst out of their summer anonymity with clouds of tiny pink bells in winter. We have two of the best varieties for our climate, a tall one and a short one. Ericas prefer sandy, acidic soil and moderate water. Shear lightly after bloom but don’t prune hard. Erica canaliculata: Christmas Heath. Bushy spires to 6’ tall and 4’ wide. Branches are long lasting in flower arrangements. Erica darleyensis ‘Darley Dale’. 1’ tall x 2’ wide. Light pink flowers. |

| Enjoy a cool and subtle medley of silvery green, electric blue, white and lavender. The Westringia and Teucrium are both about 4’-5’ tall. You could plant them together for a fast-growing informal hedge, with the Convovulus in front as a border. |
