Proposal calls for three-phase effort, with $350,000 for consulting work and $150,000 for demonstration gardens
A city that’s named for the elfin coastal scrub oaks and also home to a rare endangered shrub now is contemplating creating an ordinance to promote the use of native plants at both residential and commercial sites.
On its web site, the county government office notes that much of San Diego County used to be covered in what’s known as the Coastal Sage Scrub plant community, but the majority has been lost to development and “much of what remains is in small patches of isolated habitat.” Common plants found in the Coastal Sage Scrub community include California sagebrush, flat-topped buckwheat, black sage, laurel sumac, bladder pod and San Diego bush sunflower.
