Yaquina Nursery

I first discovered this hidden gem in 2021 just as the new owners were getting up and going. I purchased a Madagascar Palm and a 3ft Old Man cacti. Wow, beautiful plants still going strong today. I recommend this source for succulent/cacti and am looking forward on a revisit this summer. Update on 8/1 2022: Made another trip out but was a bit disappointed. New owners took over about a year ago and selection and pricing changed. Selection: not as much. There was an additional greenhouse that were full of plants but is now used for propagating only. Also, larger cacti/succulents were cut back..alot. Pricing: with the inventory cut back, I presume they raised prices as an offset. I would estimate pricing is up 30-40%. Not a big deal unless you're looking for more substantial plants. All-in-all I was disappointed at the changes and since gas is alot higher and they are 10 miles east of Yachats, I'm rethinking where to buy. With the owners response, I have to say they have some valid reasons for the retail increases and selection decreases. As in all businesses, the bottom line is the bottom line. From the perspective of the consumer, I have to look at cost vs. benefit. Yes, prior to new ownership there was an abundance of larger cacti with wide ranging pricing so that there was a good to great chance of finding something w/in budget. Now, I was left with an enormously pared back assortment and could not find anything reasonable of 3ft. or taller cacti. I have gone to online purchasing and without traveling over 200 miles and the time/gas expense a non- factor, I am getting more bang for the buck. I wish the new owners luck in their new adventure and will give it a year and perhaps return to see if the renovations are finished at least to the extent that the greenhouse now used in propagating is back to showroom status.

So many succulent babies! Very healthy. Hard to choose which ones must be adopted. All babies adopted last year are still living their best lives. This is a "must vist" nursery.

This place is amazing! We had the luxury of meeting with the owners who had the nursery for 30 something years I believe, they were so nice and knowledgeable and we also spent time conversation with the lady who was taking it over. It is always a pleasure to talk to kind people who love what they do!
