Specimen Tree Varieties


specimen-trees-for-sale-olive.jpg

Olive Trees

Ancient olive trees are a popular choice in landscaping because of their evergreen leaves, long lifespan, and in the right growing conditions, olive trees can live for hundreds of years. Mature olive trees are weather tolerant and adapt well to their environment, even in extreme temperatures or drought.

specimen-trees-for-sale-redwood.jpg

Redwood Trees

The Coastal Redwood (Aptos Blue) is a towering evergreen native to California that does well in areas of rain and fog. Resistant to fire and pests, including oak root fungus, the Coastal Redwood has feather like leaves, fragrant bark and signature ridged reddish-brown bark that can live for 150 years.

specimen-trees-for-sale-ginkgo.jpg

Ginkgo Trees

The Ginkgo tree is a slow-growing, graceful tree that can easily reach 50 feet over time. Yellow flowers appear in the summer, while their distinctive, fan-shaped, light green leaves turn a bright golden yellow in the fall. As the leaves drop, the ground is covered in a "golden snow” of Ginkgo leaves.

specimen-trees-for-sale-persimmon.jpg

Persimmon Trees

The Persimmon tree grows in a variety of climates and is also very easy to maintain. They grow in almost any type of soil and can adapt to a wide range of climates. Its thick, glossy leaves are dark green in the summer and turn reddish-purple in the fall. White fragrant bell-shaped flowers bloom in spring.

specimen-trees-for-sale-oak.jpg

Oak Trees

Oak trees, such as the Coast Live Oak, provide excellent shade with their broad leaves and stately height. Oak trees adapt well to any soil conditions and are typically pest and disease free. Oaks are hardy trees that can live more than 200 years (Quercus Lobatas and Valley Oaks can live up to 600).

specimen-trees-for-sale-magnolia.jpg

Magnolia Trees

The Magnolia tree is known for its ornamental, fragrant flowers. They provide good shade and can survive for more than 100 years. Magnolias prefer full sun with afternoon shade and protection from harsh conditions. They are resistant to most pests and diseases (may be prone to fungal infections).

specimen-trees-for-sale-palm.jpg

Palm Trees

Palm trees are beautiful and easy to transplant. Chamaerops can tolerate months without water once established. The Phoenix canariensis grows easily, and the Washingtonia Robusta is one of the tallest. Ornamentals, such as the lush, green, drought-tolerant Sago, dates back to the Mesozoic age.

specimen-trees-for-sale-citrus.jpg

Citrus Trees

The Citrus tree features include bright green foliage, fragrant flowers, and delicious fruits packed with Vitamin C. They are also valuable ornamental plants. Citrus trees are not difficult to grow but they are cold-sensitive. Talk to us about the best place to plant Citrus trees on your property.

specimen-trees-for-sale-italian-cypress.jpg

Italian Cypress Trees

The Italian Cypress tree has a shape and height that is perfect for creating distinctive driveways, entrances, or as a focus of its own. This evergreen tree requires little maintenance as it retains its shape without clipping. It’s an adaptable tree that will flourish in full sun and in a variety of soils.

specimen-trees-for-sale-crape-myrtle.jpg

Crape Myrtle Trees

The Crape Myrtle tree is known for its colorful and long-lasting flowers, fall leaves, and mottled bark. Grown either as a multi-stemmed tree or a shrub, hundreds of vibrant flower clusters spring forth in shades of purple, white, pink and red. Perfect for screens, lawn specimens, and shrub borders.

specimen-trees-for-sale-maple.jpg

Maple Trees

The Maple tree is a focal point in the fall with medium to dark-green leaves that turn yellow, burnt orange, and red. The Maple tree tolerates shade, likes a well-drained, moderately moist, and fertile soil. Besides providing a central point on a property, the Maple tree is great for tapping maple syrup.

specimen-trees-for-sale-various-fruit-trees.jpg

Various Fruit Trees

Fruit trees have many helpful benefits, such as nutritious, locally grown fruits right in your backyard, promoting a deeper connection with the growing process. Fruit trees also encourage a cleaner environment and a healthier lifestyle than store-bought food that is often transported hundreds of miles.

specimen-trees-for-sale-sycamore.jpg

Sycamore Trees

The Sycamore tree provides excellent shade. The Bloodgood Sycamore is a disease-resistant tree that can grow in difficult soil conditions. The California Sycamore has a good fire resistance rating, can tolerate high heat and wind, is deer resistant, and has deep roots.

specimen-trees-for-sale-chinese-pistache.jpg

Chinese Pistache Trees

The Chinese Pistache tree has fissured bark and glossy leaves that bring glorious colors in the fall. It is relatively pest-free and not damaged by insects. It is also a versatile tree that thrives easily and a good choice as a shade tree near decks or walkways.

specimen-trees-for-sale-fig.jpg

Fig Trees

The Fig tree is an ancient, fast-growing bushy tree that produces renowned, sweet fruits. The Fig tree prefers the Mediterranean climate of the western US but can survive harsher winters with extra special care. They are relatively easy to grow and make a fun addition to any home garden.
