Tree of Life Nursery California Native Plants

California Native Plant Society (CNPS) to host major conference in San Diego.  

The CNPS Conservation Conference to be held January 10-14, 2012 (next week!) in San Diego, promises to be a great opportunity for botanists, horticulturists, native plant enthusiasts, and the general public to discuss a very important topic:  Conservation of native plants.  This is a major event for CNPS and it is a real privilege for us all, here in sunny southern California, to welcome this state-wide conference into San Diego.  Tree of Life Native Nursery will be there as an exhibitor and we will be donating over 100 plants (custom selected, rare, endangered, unique, scarce in horticulture, of special interest) for the silent auction.  Our own Mike Evans and Gene Ratcliffe will be giving talks on Saturday the 14th (part of the FREE Public Day Program!) on native plant landscaping.
