Plants For the Southwest

There are reasons why this place is so good for me, and it took me a long time to end up writing a review. For years I bought all my plants friends that are plant people and wholesalers, all of these people are no longer in business. I have planted hundreds of plants in my yard and in pots over the years experimenting with new and different plants. Some of the plants have worked and others have bit the dust going from the extreme heat to the extreme cold. Global warming is happening!!! So now I go here because it is close to my house and is of a similar micro-​climate. I snoop around and ask which plants have managed to make it through both weather extremes with little or minimal effort. The little to no effort is important because I am gone for long stretches of time and someone else takes care of my potted plants and yard. This is my go to place for expensive plants for pots that will survive. It is worth the price!

I like this little nursery because the owners are always friendly when I see them. They’re knowledgeable and are often at the local cactus and succulent sales with an interesting assortment of plants. The nursery itself is heavy on the mesembs and caudiciforms, but there’s some good stuff if you ask. The plants they sell are not always the easiest for the weekend grower, so make sure you know what you’re buying before you drop the cash! They’re certainly not the most economical of local C&S nurseries, but certainly worth the visit.
