Tucked in a hillside overlooking the Willamette River in North Portland, Bearberry grows and sells low- and no-water plants for PNW gardeners. While our primary focus is western natives, several plants from farther afield often make their way into our inventory just because we love them so much (and think you will, too).

Check out our current plant availability and schedule a visit to come see us soon! We can’t wait to meet you.

  • "In these strange days spending time in a beautiful garden so grounded in its place (did I mention that most of these plants are Western natives?) and getting to talk with someone so excited about plants that he's opening up his home garden to make them available to others, well, it just doesn't get any better."

  • "The setting is remarkable, high on a bluff above the Willamette in St. Johns, integrated with Chris’ amazing garden. Lots of amazingly grown and combined West Coast native plants mingle with other low water species, creating a lush and welcoming environment for their dogs and for lots of wildlife. Chris is a great grower and propagator, with many home grown plants to offer. He is also stocking a curated array of plants from Xera- lots of manzanita of course!- be sure to check out his availability list."
