A Ficus Resource Guide

As a companion to the July 2010 article in Pacific Horticulture by Laurel Woodley about the many species of Ficus in the collections at the South Coast Botanic Garden, we offer the following resource guide to nurseries in the West Coast states that offer a selection of Ficus species. Given the large size of many of the species, they are not commonly available in nurseries, so be sure to contact any nursery before visiting to confirm that there will be any available.
