The Arboretum Nursery is managed by the Friends of the UC Davis Arboretum. It is located by Orchard Park, near The Colleges at La Rue, behind the basketball courts.

Occasionally, they have plant sales. You can find flowering plants, herbs, native grasses, desert plants, small trees, orchids, and tons of other nice plants. Most are outdoor, but some do well indoors, too. The people who run the nursery sales will gladly give you advice if you ask for it. Botany club members also help set up the event. The prices are reasonable, members of the Friends of the UC Davis Arboretum receive a 10% discount on plants, at these events the cost of membership is reduced by five dollars and they have a buy one get one free deal.

The most recent public sale is Saturday, April 12, 2008 from 9am to 3pm.

Sometimes they need cardboard boxes for plant sales.

In the Spring of 2008 a new location for the nursery was constructed closer to the west end of the arboretum.

Under construction end of June 2008

• Hahaha. It just occurred to me that the "seed" designation on this page is so appropriate. —TaniaG
