Inventory of plants for Spring, 2012 If you’d like to see an inventory of plants available at Native Here, please come to the nursery to help put one together. So many of our regular work days have been rained out, and there have been so many cuttings to take and seedlings to pot, that volunteers have not had the time to do inventory. There is a wealth of plants from as far away in the two counties as Livermore and Martinez, as well as from on and around Mt Diablo, the East Bay Hills, and bayside locales.
