We sell more than half of the plants that we grow wholesale to other nurseries and florists in California and some to other western states. the Poinsettias are growing for the Holidays, the pansies & violas are growing in the field, Evelyn is busy with the Lima Bean Faire to be held at the Heritage Museum in Encinitas. In October, We 'll be in Hawaii and cruising down to Mexico, sleeping late, reading and having fun.

If you check the Everything box we'll let you know any special that comes up. You choose if you want to drive down or not. If you don't check this box you would only get a special email if it applied to your area.

If you would like to get an occasional email telling you when we have something special going on simply fill in this email form. We are asking for your city and zip code so that we can send you a special email if we need to. Sometimes we have very limited something special and we would only send to local folks or others who want to know "Everything"

Either way don't expect lots of emails...I don't have time and neither do you. Thanks, Evelyn

When you fill it in you will get an email back.

Be sure and return that email to complete your registration. This double step helps deter spammers coming in. Of course we would never ever share your name or sell your names. (Actually only once did someone ask to use our list and of course we said"no"!!

We promise that each email will have some helpful gardening hints, information on what is going on and most important we won't annoy you with an email every week.

When you call and don't get an answer or get a message, here's why.
Sometimes we are where we don't hear the phone, sometimes two of the three lines are busy and the phone rolls to the third line. Can't put an answering machine message on that line and we keep resisting one of those annoying "your call is important to us" set ups. Even if you don't get an answer keep trying the 760 436 2194 number and you'll get us eventually.
Quick driving instructions... Interstate 5 between Leucadia and La Costa exits---We are on the corner of Piraeus and Normandy.[ 695 Normandy] on the east side of the freeway. Piraeus is the name of the frontage road. It only goes between those two exits. Map
