High Desert Native Plants is the only nursery in El Paso specializing in plants native to the Chihuahuan Desert. Since I have what I’d call a "black thumb," I figured I’d do best with plants suited to the El Paso environment. I love gardens, but not the work that comes with them, so I focused on plants that require no mulch or fertilizer, and minimal watering. So far, I’ve purchased sage, evergreen sumac, creosote, a desert willow tree, and various species of Hesperaloe—and I haven’t killed anything yet! The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. At 70 years old, my digging days are behind me, so I always include planting with my orders. I’m not great at garden design, so I typically start with a rough idea of where I want the plants and ask for their advice. Their suggestions are always spot-on, and I follow them to create a yard that I’m genuinely happy with. “Focal point” wasn’t something I used to think about, but now I have several beautiful focal points in my gardens. Lastly, I rescued a small dog who can jump 5 feet, so I needed to raise my 65-foot rock wall from 2 ½ feet to 6 feet. High Desert Native Plants completed the work in just two days, and the wall looks fantastic. They did such a neat job that there was no cleanup needed on my neighbor’s side! A note: The nursery is usually open by appointment, so it’s best to call ahead. Their stock can vary, but they can source many different desert native plants from places like Arizona and New Mexico.
It's such a beautiful place. This place feels like a safe space to go to. The fountain needs a better pump.
My new favorite nursery . .awesome selections, super friendly and knowledgeable staff. Headed back this weekend!!
I never like or do bad reviews, but this was to much. We went with my husband to this place multiple times during there posted hours and its always closed & never a answer on the phone. They left a sign this time saying that we can call , so they can open the door for us. We call and Mike answred "you dont now how to read"? . Im very disappointment, please change your hours of attending people and try to not be so rude with new customers. Also, he said they will be closed until next year, cause it's not the season and they dont have to much plants.
Amazing assortment of plants and very knowledgeable owner -- I would highly recommend purchasing your desert plants from High Desert Native Plants if you're redesigning your landscape!
