Winter Growers

Already yearning for spring bouquets? Keep your garden blooming year-round and your pollinators happy by learning how to grow cool-season growers. While there are many arid climates globally, coastal California is one of only five Mediterranean climates in the world, receiving almost all its rainfall in the winter months.

Learn which drought-tolerant plants are best planted now to soak up winter rainfalls, including California natives, South African aloes, Canary Island endemics, Australian protea relatives, and many more! Dean Karras, founder of Gnosis Nursery in Ramona, shares beautiful aloes, dudleya, cool weather Mediterranean plants, and unique succulents.
