California Natives

In spring and fall, our California Native department is loaded with plants indigenous to California.

Here you will find varieties of Arctostaphyllos, Ceanothus and Salvias as well as Toyon (Heteromeles) and  Rhus.

Visit in spring and you will see a blaze of color provided by natives such as the showy yellow flowered Fremontedendron and the vivid blues of Ceanothus.

Other flowering Santa Monica Mountain natives to look for are Sisyrinchium (Blue-eyed Grass), Epilobium (Zauschneria), Romneya (Matilija Poppy), and Eriogonum.
