Summer Winds Nursery at a glance
Summer Winds Nursery is a locally run garden center and plant nursery in Palo Alto, California, found at 725 San Antonio Avenue. It is a practical local stop for Palo Alto gardeners who would rather get plants and know-how from people nearby than from a national chain.
What grows well around Palo Alto
California’s climate ranges from cool coastal fog belts to hot inland valleys, but most of the state sits in a mild Mediterranean pattern (broadly USDA zones 9 to 10) with dry summers and wet winters. That makes a nearby store genuinely useful, because its stock leans toward citrus, succulents, California natives such as ceanothus and salvia, and drought-tolerant Mediterranean plants that actually do well here. It is worth asking staff about right-plant, right-place choices for your specific spot, soil and sun.
What you will find
The store generally stocks annuals and perennials, trees and shrubs, native and drought-tolerant plants, succulents and houseplants, plus the soil, compost, containers, seeds and hand tools that go with them, with the mix rotating by season.
