Sonoma Hoary Manzanita

June 24, 2025

A favorite manzanita of many Arcto-philes, this clone introduced by one of our favorite local nurseries, Xera Plants, it has become very popular since they introduced it. We’ve rarely seen an Arctostaphylos canescens that we didn’t want to grow, but this subspecies and form is particularly pleasing with silvery blue leaves and pink stems on new growth that age to become stunning mahogany trunks. Not the easiest manzanita to cultivate so be sure to site it very carefully, but once it is established it is a wonderful addition to the landscape.

Knobcone Point Manzanita

June 24, 2025

Really handsome little selection of the rarely seen Mt. Diablo manzanita, Knobcone Point has beautiful grey blue clasping foliage and nice glossy bark in time. Very dense grower, and best in lean soils in full sun where it can maintain the handsome compact habit. We’ve yet to see these grow larger than 4′ tall and about as wide, though in the wild they grow into large upright shrubs. Named presumably for Knobcone Point in Mt. Diablo State Park, one of the only places you can catch this stunning manzanita in the wild.

Cat Faced Whiteleaf Manzanita

June 24, 2025

A selection of our native Whiteleaf Manzanita named for the very cool Cat Faced Spider we found climbing on it. We’ve tried many different Arctostaphylos viscida selections and they often are very disappointing in the nursery and in the garden, either due to their slow rooting, collapse after potting, or spotty foliage when it gets into the garden. This one has so far been quite easy and seems to have less winter leaf spots than other selections, though it should still be sited somewhere with great air circulation.

Blue Rose Bonny Doon Manzanita

June 24, 2025

A favorite new silvicola selection we found with our good man Stormo in one of the few places this stunning manzanita grows. We’ve long been smitten by the kaleidoscope-esque patterns that growth tips on manzanitas can get, not dissimilar from why we find Hebes so attractive, and this one is a beautiful example of that form. Very nice when viewed from above! And the red edging around the leaf edges really adds to the wonderful texture on this one.

Blueciana Santa Lucia Manzanita

June 17, 2025

An exceptionally blue form of Arctostaphylos luciana, so blue in fact that we couldn’t resist calling it Blueciana. While all forms of this species have a wonderful blue to grey coloring to their leaves, we found this one particularly striking. In the wild it had a fairly compact habit and has proven to be exceedingly adaptable to garden conditions if provided good drainage and minimal summer water.

Point Arena Manzanita

May 27, 2025

An interesting hybrid manzanita from Point Arena, California that has quickly become our favorite groundcover Arctostaphylos for its fuzzy leaves, ability to suppress weeds, and the interesting almost Sempervivum-like pattern of its foliage. We were first turned on to this interesting hybrid by Sean Hogan of Cistus Nursery who shared plants with us before we were able to go see this beauty in the wild.

Blue in Green Manzanita

April 28, 2025

A longtime favorite from on top of Oregon Mountain that we’ve been trialing for years and are finally introducing. We’re guessing this is a hybrid involving Arctostaphylos nevadensis and something else that is very nice and blue, (canescens maybe?). It grows as a medium sized blue mound that is very dense in the harsher conditions of the Siskiyous but grows as a bit looser so far in cultivation.

White Cloud Manzanita

April 16, 2025

A great selection of a unique and rare manzanita species endemic to Santa Cruz Island, White Cloud produces large clusters of pure white flowers and is covered in white hairs all along its stems. Easily the hairiest manzanita we’ve ever seen and it makes for a great texture in the dry garden. Provide very good drainage and airflow for this one.

Myrtle Wolf Manzanita

November 8, 2024

Another great selection of Arctostaphylos pajaroensis, Myrtle Wolf has great bluish green foliage as well as deep pink flowers that emerge in late winter. A favorite of Anna’s hummingbird, producing loads of flowers at a time of year when not much else is in flower.

San Bruno Mountain Hybrid Manzanita

October 2, 2024

A very cool cross of two lovely low growing manzanitas, the commonly seen bearberry, Arctostaphylos uva-ursi, and the very rare San Bruno Mountain manzanita, Arctostaphylos imbricata. This one is easy to grow, tolerating some summer water but still prefers a well draining soil. Cool geometric pattern to the foliage, and it makes an excellent thick mounding ground cover.
