Point Loma Native Plant Garden!
Looking for a real gem, undiscovered by many?
The Point Loma Native Plant Garden houses many rare and endangered native plants.
Some in the collection are not found naturally anywhere else in the world but in our region.
Visit the garden and get a rare glimpse of what San Diego looked like over 100 years ago before Palm Trees and grass lawns became the norm.
The Garden is part of the City of San Diego's Collier Park West.
It is located at Mendocino and Greene Street in Ocean Beach.
