NURSERY SOURCING

Nursery Trees & Shrubs for Planting Projects

Big Tree Planting Co. sources nursery trees and shrubs for installed planting projects. Most of our plant material, especially evergreens, comes from our own nursery stock, and we work with trusted regional suppliers for specialty sizes, larger trees, or bigger quantities — not a walk-in lot, but the right plant material matched to the property and planted correctly.

SERVICE OVERVIEW

What's covered

Plant material support for installed projects — sourcing from our own nursery stock and trusted regional suppliers, with species choice, sizing, availability, and delivery matched to the site and schedule.

Helps match plant material to site conditions before installation.

Supports tree, evergreen, shrub, estate, commercial, and HOA planting projects.

Clarifies sizing, availability, delivery, and installation-ready stock.

Keeps sourcing questions connected to the actual planting plan.

PROCESS

How the planting work is planned

01

Project and site fit

We start with the property, project type, site conditions, and desired outcome before recommending plant material.

02

Stock direction

Material may include shade trees, ornamental trees, evergreens, arborvitae, shrubs, perennials, or garden plants depending on fit.

03

Delivery and installation path

Once the material direction is clear, the project moves into the right install service and estimate flow.

What matters before planting day

Why sourcing matters

The best tree for a property is not always the first tree available. Size, root condition, species, mature height, mature width, sun, drainage, deer pressure, and watering capacity all matter. We match plant material to the site so customers are not guessing from a tag at a nursery.

Nursery shade trees and ornamental trees ready for planting projects

Shade and ornamental trees

Shade and ornamental trees should be chosen around mature size, site conditions, and the installation goal.

Nursery evergreen trees ready for privacy and landscape planting

Evergreens and shrubs

Evergreens, arborvitae, and shrubs can support privacy, foundation planting, property borders, and bed refreshes.

SCOPE DECISIONS

What to settle before the estimate

Availability and fit

Plant material should be chosen for the site and project goal, not just current availability. Size, form, root condition, and timing all matter.

Sourcing clarity

A useful sourcing conversation separates species preference, acceptable substitutions, target size, delivery timing, and installation requirements.

Install-ready planning

Nursery selections still need a planting plan: access, spacing, soil conditions, water, mulch, and care expectations after installation.

FAQ

Common Questions

Do you sell trees directly?

We are not a walk-in retail lot. We source trees and shrubs as part of installed planting projects, so plant material is selected, delivered, and planted rather than sold off a shelf.

Do you deliver and plant trees?

Yes. Sourcing is connected to installation — we plan delivery and plant the material correctly instead of dropping it off for someone else to set.

Are your evergreens grown in your own nursery?

Many of our evergreens come from our own nursery stock. For specialty sizes or larger quantities, we also source from trusted regional suppliers.

Can you source large trees?

Yes. We can source larger and specimen trees and coordinate the delivery and installation logistics they require. See our Large Specimen Tree Installation service for the planting side.

Can you help choose the right species?

Yes. We match species to the site — sun, soil, drainage, mature size, deer pressure, and the purpose of the planting — instead of going by whatever is on hand.

What happens if a tree I want is not available?

If a specific tree is not available in the right size or quality, we explain the options: wait for availability, adjust the size, or choose a comparable species that fits the site and goal.

Do you source shrubs too?

Yes. We source shrubs and bed plants for foundation planting, landscape beds, and mixed screens alongside trees and evergreens.
