Great selection of native plants all grown right here in Tucson and not in greenhouses!

Members sales (with a generous discount) are held twice a year in the spring and fall.

Harris Antelope Squirrels have built their burrow under large rocks and into this mound of dirt. Here the young ones play in the early morning before it gets too hot.
