This list of links to descriptions & images of commonly specified plants is provided as a supplement to the plant lists provided by this office. A Tree Information page is also available.
The shrubs and groundcovers below are listed alphabetically by botanical name to correspond with the Plant Legends on the Preliminary Landscape Plans and Planting Plans produced by this office (see plan excerpt at left). Clicking the links below will open a new window with a nursery description and photo of the plant. If you leave the new window open, all subsequent clicks will open in it, allowing navigation using the forward and back buttons of your browser.
Less frequently specified plants can typically be found at the Monrovia, San Marcos or Sunset web sites. A search on Google Images may also be worthwhile. Most of the foreground plants shown in the photos on this page are identified with labels that are activated by your mouse cursor. Clicking on these plants will open the relevant information page.
