Here are a few of the plants we are growing:

Nemophila menziesii Baby Blue Eyes

Nemophila menziesii (Baby Blue Eyes) 
An annual herb that reaches approximately 6 inches in height and width. Here it is in mid-November in a pot on a warm deck in Greenbrae, CA. It likes full sun and doesn’t take a lot of water. In fact, in the Summer, you only need to water it twice a month when established! It needs good drainage so pots are particularly good for this happy little blue flower.

purple coneflower Echinacea purpurea

Echinacea purpurea (Purple Coneflower) 
This stunning perennial boasts daisy-like flowers with vibrant purple petals and a prominent, spiky central cone. Its low-maintenance requirements and native origins make it a great addition to any garden. Plus, it's a pollinator magnet and deer resistant!

Check out this year's varieties here!
