We appreciate CHECKS or CASH for payment as our credit card fees have become excessive. Please bring a check with you when you visit to help us keep from raising our prices. Thank you!

You can now sign up for our semi-annual email newsletter! If you sign up now, you will receive a coupon in the fall newsletter, due to be mailed mid-September.

Monkeyflower Madness!

There is no more colorful native perennial than Mimulus (Monkeyflower) to embellish your summer garden. Plant several shrubs side-by-side in a sunny border for months of show-stopping blooms. Our Hybrid Mimulus range from pink, red and purple to yellow, orange and white.


Their mature size will be 2'x2' to 3'x3'. Trim back finished blooms to encourage another flush of blossoms in late summer. You will not find such a variety at any other nursery. No two plants are alike so make your selection when they are blooming, which is NOW! All 1 gallon plants are $12.


How Bunny Saved California
New Educational Video Game,
Designed for Yerba Buena Nursery!


"How Bunny Saved California" is an original video game which teaches the importance of removing invasive plants that plague California. Bunny, the game's heroine, makes a valiant effort to pull, dig and wrench out some nasty weeds before they spread and crowd out the native plants. Play the game for FREE by clicking the image to the right. The game was designed by Martin Jennings-Teats and sponsored by Yerba Buena Nursery. Let us know how you like it the next time you stop by!

And our latest addition, Charlie, with dedicated attention,
has now become friends with our nursery cats!

We apologize, but our nursery dog, Charlie, is the ONLY DOG ALLOWED at Yerba Buena Nursery.

Our pets roam the grounds as if they own the place (because they do). We can't risk visits by pets who are strangers, and there is no guarantee of shady parking, so please leave yours at home where they are cool and comfortable. Thank you!

Please note: Yerba Buena Nursery is a retail nursery for walk-in customers. We are not a mail order business and we do not ship our plants.
