I've been planting Northern California's native plants, since we bought our tiny bungalow. A most impressive list.

The wax myrtle I love. Use it as a privacy screen that doubles as a hedgerow - birds ate the berries quickly. In front of it is another hedge of Ninebark <em>Coppertina</em> alternating with Viburnum (<em>tea</em>) setigerum. I really like the foliage color contrasts. Looks great, provides bird food & shelter. Andrew, pawpaw was here but I’m probably going to buy a Blue Shadow. The wax myrtle I love.

I'm still figuring out some of the natives growing here, but maybe someday I should sit down and consolidate a list. I haven't purchased very many native plants for this property yet, as we relocate or propagate some of the ones already growing here. I'm afraid to walk into our native plant nursery at the moment, for fear I'll walk out with their entire inventory! Very impressive.

I'm having trouble with my itea, and I'm going to be getting some winterberry soon soon soon. And clethra--slow to establish, and one of mine finally did last summer and now the winter rabbits decimated it. I hope it will come back, but am impatient! I have a plant list on my blog, though it's not as impressive as yours. We share many of the same shrubs! I’m having trouble with my itea, and I’m going to be getting some winterberry soon soon soon.
