Trees for Zone 10 in Los Angeles
Zone 10b in Los Angeles delivers mild winters with typical lows of 35 to 40 degrees. That means you can grow palms, subtropical fruit trees, and flowering ornamentals that would never survive in colder zones. The trade-off is summer heat and dry months that demand smart watering.
Many trees that thrive here come from the Palms and Tropicals and Fruit Trees categories. Cold Hardy Avocado and Jelly Palm handle the warmth with ease. Bald Cypress, despite being sold under Evergreen and Privacy, is deciduous and drops its needles in winter, so it fits wet or dry spots without blocking winter light.
For homeowners in Los Angeles looking for trees for zone 10, the key is choosing species that welcome the heat and shrug off the occasional cool snap. Arbor Buddy pre-screens every tree for your zone so you do not have to guess.

How Los Angeles Compares to Other Areas
Tree selection changes fast when you move to a different hardiness zone. Compare ZIP 90048 with three other climates to see what shifts.
ZIP 15228 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (PA) sits in zone 6b with winter lows of -5 to 0 F. That climate rules out nearly all palms and subtropical fruit trees. Locally, that points buyers toward cold-hardy shade trees like oaks and maples that can take deep freezes. In Los Angeles, the mild 35-to-40-degree lows let you grow Cold Hardy Avocado and Jelly Palm without frost worry.
ZIP 02885 in Warren, Rhode Island (RI) falls in zone 7a with lows of 0 to 5 F. Heat and humidity tolerance matter there because summers are muggy. Here, the zone usually pushes the choice toward heat-loving species like crape myrtles and palms that bask in dry summer heat. A Natchez Crape Myrtle that flourishes in Los Angeles would need extra care in Rhode Islands humid summers.
ZIP 29604 in Greenville, South Carolina (SC) is zone 8a with lows of 10 to 15 F. Drought tolerance is less critical there because the region gets regular rain. The practical difference is that Los Angeles buyers should pick trees like Bald Cypress that handle both dry periods and occasional wet soil, while Greenville buyers can lean toward moisture-loving species. What these contrasts mean for your cart: the trees that work in ZIP 90048 are the ones that love warmth, shrug off drought, and need no winter protection.
Freight delivery and the Thrive Guarantee
Arbor Buddy ships large, nursery-grown trees by freight to ZIP 90048 and to other Los Angeles ZIPs including 90045, 90046, 90047, 90049, 90050, and 90051.

Freight trucks can reach most residential streets, but it pays to plan ahead. Before delivery day, check:
- Someone must be home to receive the tree and inspect it on arrival.
- The delivery truck needs a street wide enough to stop or turn around.
- Decide where you want the tree dropped so the driver can place it close to that spot.
- Watch for long or narrow driveways, soft ground, and low branches or wires that could block access.
