How our website
works

Since April 1986 Plants for the Southwest and Living Stones Nursery have been dedicated to sharing our plant knowledge with others. This new website offers plant information about many of the plants we are growing now, and also information about plants we have grown in the past . You will see a tab at the top of the Home page labeled Plant Information. This tab will take you to pictures of plants, as well as information we want to share about them. Another tab at the top of the Home page is called Plant Availablity List. This is the list of plants we have available for mail order sale at this time. We will be updating this list as often as we are able. If you are in Tucson you can visit Plants for the Southwest at 50 E Blacklidge and see the many hundreds of plants we grow but have not put on our availabity list. To order from our mail order list go to the Plant Availablilty List tab and you will find ordering information spelled out for you.

You will see as you scroll through our site that we are far from finished with this new website. Like all gardens and things associated with plants it is a work in progress. Please check back often for newly added information and available plants.
