Arctostaphylos montana ssp. ravenii is one of our most treasured groundcover manzanitas. It was love at first sight when we saw it blooming at the Tilden Regional Parks Botanic Garden. Its round foliage is highlighted around the edge. The overall appearance is reminiscent of mollusc colonies in tide pools.

This subspecies was almost lost during a period of ramped-up development in the serpentines of San Francisco. All specimens today are from only one plant located in Presidio Park. 

Although it's only ever been found growing on serpentine rocky soil, it's been thriving planted on a berm of our Willamette Valley clay.

Carefully packed for each plant

Once your order is ready, we bring the plants from our greenhouses into a holding area. Each plant is wrapped by hand and, when needed, staked to protect tender stems. Because our inventory is so diverse, we adjust the packing method for each plant based on its size, type, and stage of growth.

We reuse clean paper and plastic packing materials whenever practical. It is easier on the planet and helps keep shipping costs down for you, too.

Choose your Monday ship date

At checkout, choose from the available Monday ship dates. We ship with UPS from Monmouth, Oregon, and you will receive an email with tracking information when your shipment is prepared or enters the UPS system.

Arrival times vary by destination and weather, so we cannot guarantee a specific delivery date or time.
