Advice, Consulting, and Design
The proprietors of Manzanita Nursery, Ron and Diane Griffin, want to share their enthusiasm for the extraordinary plant life that thrives in the demanding conditions found along California's South-Central Coast, and stretching inland to the mountains.
Plants in the region cope not only with drought; they are also challenged by wind, sand, clay, steep slopes, fog, sea spray, deep shade, fire, deer, and unrelenting sun. Yet they thrive.
