- Ahoy native plant lovers! Join us as we visit our friends at the Ocean Institute to discuss an enhancement of their native garden, where the seashore meets the historical bluffs of Dana Point. In 2001, Ocean Institute partnered with Tree of Life Nursery to create a living museum of maritime plants from southern California and Baja, including the Channel Islands. This video tells the garden's story with the Institute's Director, Dan Goldbacher, and Tree of Life Nursery's leader, Mike Evans, as he shows you a few of his favorite plants from the garden.
The outside garden is open to the public for your enjoyment. Better yet, a guided tour is held each Sunday at 12:30 pm by reservation! Check out @ocean_institute to learn more

Thanks to Mike and all the folks at Tree of Life for their help on many projects in our area highlighting native plants and their link to the culture and wildlife of Orange County.
Glad to hear the garden is being upgraded and that it will focus on the maritime story of Richard Henry Dana. I have planted many of these species in my Orange County yard: Catalina Island snapdragon, Catalina silverlace, cliff spurge, Dudleya, Encelia and more. The snapdragon is green all year and almost flowers year-round which is a huge benefit to hummingbirds.
