Bay Area–Based Nursery

We specialize in plants grown and delivered in their original pots and soil.
Because of their size and weight, our plants are not suitable for long-distance shipping and are delivered locally to ensure health and quality.

While delivery is limited to our local service area, we’re happy to support garden design and plant selection remotely.

For local plant professionals, we’re always glad to connect and explore ways to support your customers.

White Out Lilac Vine offers a luminous and elegant twist on the classic species. In late winter and spring, it is covered in cascading racemes of pure white, sweet pea-like flowers, creating a stunning contrast against its deep green, leathery foliage. This cleaner, brighter look brings a touch of sophistication to the early season garden. Sharing the same easy-care, drought-tolerant nature as its purple counterpart, it is perfect for lightening up a dark fence, adorning a patio trellis, or providing elegant ground cover.

Luminous White Spring Flowers: Smothered in graceful, hanging clusters of pure white blooms from late winter into spring, providing a bright, clean display.
Clean Evergreen Foliage: The glossy, dark green, lance-shaped leaves provide a perfect backdrop for the white flowers and ensure year-round interest.
Easy-Care & Drought Resistant: Established plants are highly drought-tolerant and require minimal supplemental water, making them ideal for water-wise landscapes.
Versatile Climber or Sprawler: Can be trained to climb on fences, pergolas, or obelisks, or allowed to sprawl as a dense, weed-suppressing ground cover.
Ideal for Lightening Spaces: The white flowers are excellent for brightening up shady corners or adding contrast against dark-colored walls or foliage.

Knowing how we measure the size?

When browsing our plants, you may notice size terms such as Gallon, Multi, or Stand. These describe how a plant is grown, containerized, or structured at the time of sale — not just its height. Understanding these terms will help you choose the right plant for your space and expectations.

🌱 Gallon Size (Container Size)

Gallon refers to the size of the nursery container the plant is currently growing in (e.g. 1 Gallon, 5 Gallon, 15 Gallon).

A larger gallon size generally means:
- A more established root system
- A sturdier plant
- Faster visual impact after planting
Example:
- 5 Gallon: Ideal for residential gardens, easy to handle, good balance of value and maturity
- 15 Gallon: More mature, provides quicker results in the landscape

Note: Gallon size does not guarantee a specific height, as growth varies by species.

🌳 Multi (Multi-Trunk / Multi-Branch Form)

Multi indicates the plant has multiple trunks or main stems growing from the base.

Commonly used for:
- Ornamental trees
- Feature plants
- Japanese maples, olives, crepe myrtles, etc.
Why choose Multi:
- Fuller, more sculptural appearance
- Strong visual presence even at younger ages
- Popular for design-focused landscapes

🌲 Stand (Single-Trunk / Standard Form)

Stand (short for Standard) refers to a single, dominant trunk with a raised or naturally formed canopy.

Commonly used for:
- Shade trees
- Street trees
- Orchard and structural plantings
Why choose Stand:
- Clean, classic tree form
- Easier clearance for walkways and lawns
- Preferred for long-term structure and uniformity

🌿 Choosing the Right Size

If you want instant impact → larger Gallon, Multi form
If you want long-term structure → Stand form
If you want flexibility and value → mid-size Gallon containers

If you’re unsure which size or form fits your project, our team is happy to help you select the best option based on your space, timeline, and design goals.

Q: Is it less vigorous than the purple 'Happy Wanderer'?
A: Both cultivars have similar growth habits and vigor. 'White Out' is just as robust and capable of covering a similar area (10-15 ft. wide/tall) under the same conditions.

Q: How should I prune it?
A: Pruning is simple. If needed to control size or shape, prune lightly immediately after flowering in late spring. This allows time for new growth to mature and set buds for the next year's bloom. Avoid heavy pruning into old wood.
