What to check on your site before you choose

The right tree is the one that fits your space, not just the one that looks best on its own. Walk the spot and note these points before you call.

  • Space above and around

    Think about a tree’s full height and spread, not its size today. Look for roofs, power lines, fences, driveways and septic or utility lines nearby.

  • Sun

    Note how many hours of direct sun the spot gets in summer. Some trees want full sun; others tolerate more shade.

  • Soil and drainage

    Heavy soil that stays wet after rain and sandy soil that dries fast call for different trees. Tell us which one you have.

  • Water

    Decide how you will water the tree through its first seasons. A hose, a drip line or a reachable spigot all change what is practical.

  • Purpose

    Shade, spring flowers or a privacy screen each point to a different list. The groups below sort our varieties by what you want the tree to do.

How to confirm availability

We do not post inventory, tree sizes or prices online. What is ready changes, so the quickest way to know is to call.

  1. Call with your goal

    Tell us whether you want shade, flowers, privacy or a tree for a dry site, and roughly how many trees.

  2. Ask what is ready

    We tell you which varieties on our list are available now and discuss the sizes and pricing for them.

  3. Visit by appointment

    Schedule a time to see trees in person at the farm. We are open by appointment only.

  4. Plan the rest

    Once you have chosen, ask about delivery, planting and watering for the trees you picked.

Our list includes Live Oak, Burr Oak, Water Oak, Red Oak, Mexican White Oak, Nuttall Oak, Lacebark Elm, Montezuma Cypress, Drummond Red Maple, Crape Myrtles, Desert Willow and Southern Magnolia. Not every variety is ready at all times, so confirm by phone.

Can you deliver and plant the tree I choose?
