Choosing trees by goal

Shade and canopy. Goldcrest Monterey Cypress or Bald Cypress. Bald cypress drops needles in winter so your yard gets winter sun.

Privacy and screening. Evergreen & Privacy category trees like Leyland Cypress. Fast growth but needs some space to spread; not ideal for tiny side yards.

Flowering and curb appeal. Natchez Crape Myrtle. Blossoms from summer to fall; requires at least 6 hours of direct sun.

Grow your own fruit. Cold Hardy Avocado Tree. Needs regular watering the first year; very cold tolerant but not frost-free forever.

Small spaces and accents. Pygmy Date Palm or Majesty Palm. Majesty palm needs more water than the pygmy date; both stay compact.

Trees for Zone 10 in Los Angeles

Los Angeles sits in USDA hardiness zone 10b, where winter lows run about 35 to 40 degrees F. That mild baseline means you can grow trees that would be damaged or killed in colder zones. The heat of summer is tempered by coastal breezes in many parts of the city, creating a consistent growing season that supports a wide palette of palms, flowering ornamentals, and fruit trees.

The key advantage of zone 10b is the long warm season. Palms and tropicals like Majesty Palm and Pygmy Date Palm thrive without winter protection. Evergreens such as Italian Cypress and Leyland Cypress grow year-round. The moderate humidity also suits crape myrtles and avocados. For anyone looking for trees for zone 10 in Los Angeles, the catalog is pruned to species that perform well in these conditions.

Keep in mind that even in a warm zone, local microclimates matter. Areas closer to the coast get cooler summers and more fog, while inland parts of the ZIP can experience hotter afternoons. The featured trees on this page are selected to handle the full range of conditions typical of 90037.

How Los Angeles Compares to Other Areas

Tree choices shift dramatically depending on climate. Compare Los Angeles (zone 10b, lows 35, 40°F) to three other locations to see what that means for your yard.

ZIP 29171 in West Columbia, South Carolina (SC) sits in zone 8b with winter lows of 15 to 20°F. That colder baseline rules out many palms and tropicals that are easy in LA. Locally, that points buyers toward Japanese maples, which need chill to color well. In Los Angeles, the same species would struggle without a cold period, so palms and crape myrtles are smarter picks.

ZIP 57354 in Kaylor, South Dakota (SD) is zone 5a with lows of -20 to -15°F. Nearly every tree that grows here would be killed by a single LA winter. Here, the zone usually pushes the choice toward extremely cold-hardy evergreens and deciduous trees. For you in 90037, cold-tolerance is rarely a concern, so you can focus on heat tolerance and water needs instead.

ZIP 17406 in York, Pennsylvania (PA) is zone 7a with lows of 0 to 5°F. Summer heat and humidity there can rival LA, but the colder winters limit species like citrus and palms. The practical difference is that in York you would need to protect tender plants, while in Los Angeles you can grow Cold Hardy Avocado, Majesty Palm, and Natchez Crape Myrtle without winter worry. The main comparison for you is that your zone opens a much wider palette of tropical and subtropical trees.

What this means for your cart: In Los Angeles, you can choose from species that would die in colder climates. Focus on trees that take advantage of your mild winters and long growing season, and skip cold-tolerance as a factor.

Freight delivery and the Thrive Guarantee

Arbor Buddy ships large, nursery-grown trees by freight to ZIP 90037 and other Los Angeles ZIPs including 90034, 90035, 90036, 90038, 90039, 90040.

Every tree comes with the 1-Year Thrive Guarantee. If your tree does not survive its first year, Arbor Buddy will replace it free of charge. That takes the risk out of planting a new tree.

Before delivery day, check:

  • Someone is home to accept the delivery and look over the tree.
  • A freight truck can reach your street with room to stop or turn around.
  • You have a clear spot for the tree to be dropped near the planting area.
  • Long or narrow driveways, soft ground, low branches, or overhead wires do not block access.

Buying trees in Los Angeles 90037: what locals should know

Ordering a large tree online is not like ordering a lamp. Here is what is worth knowing before you buy, from reading your hardiness zone to what actually shows up on the truck.

How to read your hardiness zone

Los Angeles 90037 sits in USDA zone 10b. Your zone describes the coldest winter a tree can reliably survive. In a near-tropical zone almost nothing is too tender, so the filter works in reverse: it flags trees that need winter chill they will never get here.

Typical winter lows here run about 35 to 40 F. Half-zones matter at the edges: two steps on the map are about five winter degrees, which is enough to decide whether a borderline pick belongs in your cart.

What freight delivery actually means

Your tree arrives large, nursery-grown and at a usable landscape size, secured to a pallet and delivered curbside or as close as the truck can safely get. Before delivery day, run through this quick checklist:

  • Someone can be home to receive the tree and look it over on arrival.
  • A freight truck can reach your street, with room to stop or turn around.
  • You know where you want it dropped: curbside, or as close as the driver can safely get.
  • Access watch-outs are handled: narrow driveways, soft ground after rain, low branches or wires.

The guarantee, in plain terms

If a tree does not survive its first year, we replace it free, shipping included. The promise works because every tree ships zone-matched and nursery-grown, so it arrives set up to succeed in your climate rather than gambling against it.

Coverage runs a full year from delivery. If something goes wrong, contact the team and they arrange the replacement. No store-credit games, no fine-print maze.
