The Best Trees for Planting in Florida
Shade trees are a must for the Florida summer, whether you live in the Atlantic Coastal Plain, the East Gulf Coastal Plain or the Florida Uplands. We recommend the simple beauty of the Windmill Palm which adapts to any soil type, or the American Beech, which provides dense shade.
If you’re looking for Citrus Trees, you will love our Nules Clementine. Despite its small size, this tree soon becomes loaded with fruit each summer. And our fast-growing Red Haven Peach has a delicious flavor and provides an abundance of fruit very quickly.
For those interested in flowering trees in Florida, we offer a variety of beautiful options that thrive in the state's climate. If you’d like extra privacy without the starkness of a wall or fence, check out our living greenery. We offer a range of rapidly-growing evergreens that will lock their feathery leaves to form a beautiful screen in no time at all. The Thuja Green Giant is the most popular evergreen in the United States and grows at an incredible rate of up to 5 feet per year. Another hardy screen tree is Nellie Stevens Holly.
