AT A GLANCE
The Nursery Beverly Hills Landscapers Drive to for Specimen Fruit Trees
Our family runs a working growing nursery on a Vista hillside, not a retail garden center.
Beverly Hills designers come to us when a project calls for size, health and rare varieties.
Visit Details for Beverly Hills Clients
Find us at 2081 Elevado Road in Vista, roughly 107 miles south of Beverly Hills.
Plan on about two hours each way.
We are open Tuesday through Saturday 9 to 4 and Sunday 10 to 4.
No appointment is needed, and our crew loads every order.
Call 760-434-5085 with questions.
WHY IT’S WORTH THE DRIVE
Why Beverly Hills Clients Make the Drive
A two-hour drive buys you a tree that would take decades to grow from a sapling.
HERITAGE
Decades of Growing Behind Every Specimen
We are Southern California’s oldest fruit tree nursery. Our growers know which trees will impress in a Beverly Hills garden.
40 YEARS
Specimen Trees for an Instant Landscape
Our mature trees reach up to 40 years old. They anchor a courtyard or garden the day they are planted.
RARE
Varieties You Won’t Find on the Westside
Lychee, jaboticaba, wax jambu and white sapote are hard to source in Los Angeles. We grow them in volume.
ONE TRIP
Outfit an Entire Property at Once
Hand-pick every tree in person. Our team loads your truck so one trip can stock a whole garden.
FEATURED TREES
Fruit Trees Beverly Hills Gardens Are Built Around
These six groups suit Beverly Hills estate gardens especially well.
Each card lists named varieties we grow in our Vista yard.
Availability changes often. Check our inventory or call 760-434-5085 before you make the drive.
AVOCADO
Hass, Reed and Lamb Hass Avocados
A mature avocado gives a Beverly Hills yard instant shade and a real harvest. Hass brings the classic buttery fruit. Reed grows large, round fruit with smooth green skin. Lamb Hass stays more upright, which suits narrower side yards in the Flats.
In our yard: Hass, Fuerte, Reed, Lamb Hass, Mexicola
CITRUS
Blood Oranges, Cara Cara and Meyer Lemon
Citrus is the backbone of most estate kitchen gardens we help plan. Moro and Sanguinelli blood oranges add deep red juice for cocktails and desserts. Cara Cara navels are pink inside and very sweet. Meyer lemon is the chef favorite.
In our yard: Moro Blood, Sanguinelli Blood, Cara Cara, Washington Navel, Meyer Lemon
MANGO
Manila and Corriente Mango Trees
A fruiting mango makes guests stop and look. Our Manila mango has slender, honey-sweet fruit with very little fiber. Plant it against a south-facing wall in the Flats for extra warmth.
In our yard: Manila (Philippine), Corriente (limited supply)
CHERIMOYA
Booth and Dr. White Cherimoya
Cherimoya tastes like pineapple, banana and vanilla custard at once. It enjoys the mild Westside marine layer and makes a striking courtyard tree. Hand pollination in early summer helps it set a heavier crop.
In our yard: Booth, Dr. White
ESPALIER
Espalier Fuji and Anna Apples
Formal gardens love espalier fruit trained flat against a wall or fence. Our Espalier Fuji and Espalier Anna arrive already shaped into clean tiers. Anna is a low-chill apple, so it fruits reliably in Beverly Hills winters.
In our yard: Espalier Anna, Espalier Fuji, Pink Lady, Beverly Hills apple
FIG
Black Mission, Panache and Peters Honey Figs
Figs handle heat, poor soil and drought better than most fruit trees. Panache is the striped tiger fig with red flesh. It always starts a conversation. Peters Honey gives pale green, very sweet fruit through late summer.
In our yard: Black Mission, Excel, Long Verde, Panache, Pasquale, Tena, Peters Honey
SIZES & BUYING
What Beverly Hills Clients Should Know Before the Drive
Most estate projects need trees that look finished on day one. Here is how sizing and pickup work.
CONTAINER SIZES
From 15 Gallon to 100 Gallon Specimens
Most trees start at 15 gallon. Larger stock comes in 25 gallon, 45 gallon and 65 gallon.
We also grow 20, 24 and 30 inch boxes. A few very large specimens sit in 100 gallon containers.
FRUIT TIMING
Many Trees Already Bear Fruit
Many of our trees are already at fruiting age when you buy them.
Younger trees usually fruit two to three years after planting. Year one is for roots.
HAULING
Bring a Truck, Trailer or Your Landscaper
We do not ship trees. Our crew loads every tree into your vehicle or trailer.
Beverly Hills clients can also send their landscape contractor with a flatbed.
RESERVING
Hold a Tree Before You Leave the Westside
We can sometimes reserve trees by phone with full payment.
Call 760-434-5085 first, since citrus and box sizes often run in limited supply.

BEVERLY HILLS NEIGHBORHOODS
From the Flats to Trousdale, Matching Trees to Your Street
South of Santa Monica Boulevard, the Flats near Beverly Gardens Park stay warm and sheltered.
That suits Manila mango, Reed avocado and Booth cherimoya along a sunny wall.
Up in Trousdale Estates and near Greystone Mansion, hillside views call for sculptural trees.
Our espalier apples and boxed citrus fit formal terraces there.

FAQ
Beverly Hills Fruit Tree FAQs
Where can I buy specimen fruit trees near Beverly Hills?
Our Vista nursery grows mature fruit trees up to 40 years old. It sits about two hours south of Beverly Hills.
How long is the drive from Beverly Hills to Vista?
Plan on about two hours for roughly 107 miles. Leaving early avoids most 405 and I-5 traffic.
Can my landscape designer pick the trees for me?
Yes. Designers are welcome to walk our rows and tag trees for their clients.
Do you deliver specimen trees to Beverly Hills?
We do not deliver. Your landscaper or a hired hauler can collect the trees, and we help load them.
Which fruit trees suit a Beverly Hills courtyard?
Container citrus, kumquat and jaboticaba look polished in courtyards. They stay a manageable size in large pots.
Will a 40-year-old tree survive transplanting?
Our trees are container-grown, so their roots stay intact. That makes the move far easier than digging a field tree.
Do you offer pricing for multi-tree estate projects?
Ask us about current discounts on larger orders. We often help estates plant a full orchard at once.
What should I bring when I visit?
Bring photos and measurements of the planting areas. Wear shoes for walking dirt rows.
