Grey Leaf Sandmat Manzanita

October 25, 2023

An excellent species native to the sandy chaparral and oak woodland surrounding Monterey Bay just north of Carmel, this grey leaf form of sandmat manzanita was widely distributed after being planted at the North Willamette Research Station’s manzanita trial and has proven adaptable to garden conditions even outside of sandy soils. Likely tolerant of a bit of summer water since it grows so near the coast, but we typically give it zero irrigation after establishment here in Portland.

Pozo Summit Big Berry Manzanita

October 25, 2023

A widely distributed species from central to southern California, Arctostaphylos glauca is one of our favorites for its stunning whitish blue leaves and pink stems and petioles. Fairly adaptable and easy to grow if given full sun, excellent drainage and minimal summer water after the first couple years. This collection from near the top of Pozo Summit should be easily hardy to 0° F as it gets quite cold up there.

Diablo’s Blush Manzanita

August 22, 2023

An excellent and rare manzanita that grows only on Mt. Diablo to the east of the Bay Area. New growth emerges a bright pink that contrasts beautifully with the grey foliage and the auriculate foliage provides an amazing texture, especially when viewed from above. Very drought tolerant once established and needing no supplemental watering after its first year or two in the ground.

Kinnikinnick Manzanita

April 18, 2023

The most commonly seen manzanita in landscapes, Kinnikinnick is also the most widespread manzanita species on the planet.

Black Manzanita Fig Tree

October 13, 2022

One of the most exciting wild collected figs to come out of California, Black Manzanita was shared with us years ago by Mike Boss who had recently taken over Sonoma Horticultural Nursery. We assumed that this was another California seedling that might not produce figs without the wasp, but sure enough it produces loads of large and unique figs up here in Oregon.

Real Peach Manzanita

August 31, 2022

A naturally occuring hybrid of Arctostaphylos viscida and A. canescens, this one found outisde of Grants Pass at a site where the Whiteleaf Manzanitas grow into veritable trees.

Sunset Manzanita

December 15, 2021

Sunset Manzanita is a fantastic cross between Arctostaphylos hookeri and Arctostaphylos pajaroensis. This hybrid manzanita drapes itself across a six foot wide space and grows to about three to four feet in height.

Field Guide to Manzanitas

December 6, 2021

An OGW Favorite!

Manzanita’s center of biodiversity is in the California Floristic Province, where they are the “rock stars” of woody shrub diversity. Ranging from the Sierra Nevada mountains to coastal bluffs along the Pacific, from temperate rainforests along the North Coast to arid mountain slopes in Southern California, a wealth of manzanita species and subspecies can be found in an astonishing array of environments.

Lester Rowntree Manzanita

December 3, 2021

Another lovely selection of the Pajaro Manzanita, this one named for one of the greatest proponents and explorers of California flora to ever grace the state.

St. Helena Manzanita

October 27, 2021

A big, bold, large growing manzanita for those who want a more tree-like manzanita to really show off that gorgeous bark and take a prominent place in the garden.
