Eli Likover

As General Manager of Larner Seeds, Eli is excited to expand and assist in designing and installing gardens beyond the Larner Seeds Display Garden. She is especially passionate about native plant food gardens and gardens that utilize a Combination of Shrubs, grasses, perennials, and annuals for a balance of structure, longevity, texture, and color. Her first calling is as an artist and enjoys using plants as a living palette. She has experience with both native plant gardens as well as integrating CA native plants with existing non-native gardens.

She is available for both strictly native gardens as well as integrating native plants into existing non-native plantings.

Service Area: Eli serves West Marin and select locations in central and North Marin on a case by case basis. 

Contact: Eli can be reached by phoning or texting the Larner Seeds office at (415) 868-9407
