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.

The Double Weeping Cherry is a living fountain of flowers. In spring, its long, cascading branches are completely draped in showy, double pink blossoms, creating a magnificent floral waterfall. This dramatic, sculptural tree is a breathtaking focal point best suited for cooler Bay Area gardens where it can be planted to showcase its full, weeping form.

Features a dramatic, weeping habit with long, arching branches that sweep the ground, forming a stunning floral cascade in mid-spring.
Produces a heavy cover of bright pink, double flowers along the entire length of the previous year’s weeping branches.
Creates an unmatched sculptural presence in the garden, offering interest even in winter when its elegant branch structure is visible.
Foliage emerges bronze and turns green, often with undistinguished fall color.
Best performance is achieved in the cooler, chillier parts of the Bay Area where it can set buds reliably.

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: How do I plant it to showcase the weeping form?
A: Often grafted on a tall standard (trunk). Plant it on a slight mound or open area where its branches can cascade freely to the ground without obstruction. Underplant with low groundcovers.

Q: Is it difficult to maintain?
A: It requires careful pruning only to remove dead wood or correct crossing branches, always done after flowering. The main challenge is ensuring it receives enough winter chill in the Bay Area to bloom heavily.
