We are a multi generational family of plant people that have lived and grown in Flagstaff for the last 30 years. We started out growing plants and propagating natives for our own land before going public with what we hope will become a more arid adapted and perennial gardening movement. Our intense high desert landscape is bursting with beauty and food production potential.
It is our goal to bring Flagstaff high quality annual and perennial plants, without synthetic fertilizers and chemicals, for all landscaping and gardening needs. All of our garden starts are heirloom varieties selected for hardiness and our short growing season. The majority of our native plants are grown from local seed sources, so you know they have the best genotype for this area.
