Hey Chad, San Marcos is a large grower in SoCal. If you look on their website or even call they can hook you up with a local retailer. I’ve done that successfully recently when I was looking for Kniphofia Christmas Cheer. I got the plants 2 weeks later, beautiful specimens. San Marcos is large enough to have many customers in Northern Cal.
