California’s unique Mediterranean climate is found in only a few select locations around the globe. This temperate climate makes it possible to grow an extraordinarily vast number of plant species. While a wide variety of species can thrive here, selecting and grouping plants that are both climate and water appropriate for their specific environments is an art form unto itself.

 

With extensive experience and deep knowledge of California’s many ecosystems, microclimates, soil biology, and myriad of plant species, we provide expert horticultural services to private clients and botanical gardens alike.
