Welcome to Waltzing Matilija Nursery!
I grow tough, drought-tolerant Australian and South African plants — the kind that make low-water gardens shine.
I take pride in propagating unique varieties and shipping only healthy, high-quality plants straight to your garden anywhere in the Western USA.
Whether you’re a first-time grower or a seasoned plant lover, there’s something here to inspire your garden.
—Troy, Owner | Grower | Shipper
Orders placed by midnight Sunday will ship the following week, usually Monday or Tuesday. Missed the deadline? Don’t worry — your plants will get their moment to shine the week after.
Each one is carefully packed so it arrives happy, healthy, and ready to show off in your garden.
​
I don’t ship internationally — plants get homesick too easily! If you’re local, select pick-up at checkout, and we’ll let you know when they are ready to be head out.
Online sales only. You just made some plants very happy — thanks!
