R&M Plant Procurement

Built for the details that derail plant orders.

R&M was built specifically to handle the details that create logistics problems in plant procurement.

Plant procurement fails in small, expensive ways.

  • A plant arrives mislabeled.

  • A tree doesn't meet the specified size.

  • Material shows up in poor condition — or isn't on the truck at all.

  • A plant list needs several nurseries across several states coordinated at once.

  • Hours disappear into arranging pickups, drive time and checking orders.

  • The material that finally lands gets rejected by the architect.

    • R&M doesn't just prevent those problems from ever reaching the job site or affecting the landscaper or contractor. We make our clients stand out by having the best material at the right time — which is the best way to get paid on time.

A specialized team with deep roots in plant knowledge

R&M is comprised of plant experts who understand every type of nursery stock. Our team has extensive, decades-long experience with plant identification, grading, care, handling, storage, loading, transportation and delivery.

Job-specific, tailor-made service

R&M caters to landscape architects and designers whose projects are extraordinarily unique and specific. It is our job to preserve the integrity of the design by understanding how to deliver the correct and supreme material. From residential gardens, commercial developments, public parks, wineries, schools and wetland projects to overwhelmingly large and incredibly finite niche work, our customized approach achieves the same harmonious result time and time again. We complete a stringent review of each plant list, specification, schedule, access point, delivery requirement and staging need alongside locating, procuring and caring for each plant. Every order is built around the project's needs, and each job is bid as a whole job and a complete service in its entirety.

Our growers

R&M works with over 200 nurseries up and down the West Coast, in addition to hundreds of specialty growers throughout the United States. These pivotal relationships help us locate rare, unusual and size-specific material, compare quality, review real-time availability and coordinate complex orders.

How we communicate

R&M keeps customers informed as orders move through sourcing, pickup, holding, preparation and delivery. When availability changes or a problem develops, we address it directly. Customers always know if there are issues that need attention or decisions that need to be made — in advance of delivery, not after.
