History

Established in 2015.

After over two decades of working for other people in many aspects of the Central Texas plant industry – including retail, propagation, and landscape design and maintenance – owner Matt Vest decided to follow his lifelong dream and open his own nursery where he could sell the kind of plants he loves – tough, beautiful, and unique. Now he sells plants whose quality he has proven himself, from modern classics like ‘Anne Marie’ lantana to drought-​adapted bloom machines like Chitalpa tashkentensis to traditional favorites like the antique China rose ‘Old Blush.’
