Choosing trees by goal

Shade and canopy. Fast semi-evergreen like Mexican White Oak. Needs enough planting width; roots can lift sidewalks if set too close.

Privacy and screening. Leyland Cypress or other tall evergreens. Leyland Cypress may develop canker in hot, dry summers; consider native alternatives.

Flowering and curb appeal. Natchez Crape Myrtle for summer blooms. Deciduous, so bare in winter; but its bark provides winter interest.

Grow your own fruit. Arbequina Olive Tree. Self-fertile and easy; check local restrictions on olive tree planting.

Small spaces and accents. Chinese Windmill Palm or Majesty Palm. Windmill palm needs some shade; Majesty palm requires frequent water.

  • Shade Trees: Fast-growing options for 10b like Mexican White Oak cast summer shade and tolerate heat.
  • Evergreen & Privacy: Leyland Cypress and other screening evergreens suit zone 10 but watch for heat stress.

Trees for Zone 10 in Los Angeles

Zone 10b in Los Angeles means winter lows typically stay between 35 and 40 degrees F. That mild cold lets you grow trees that would struggle in colder parts of the country. Palms, subtropicals, and many flowering trees thrive here year-round. The trade-off is dry summers and occasional heat waves, so drought tolerance matters.

Trees like Mexican White Oak and Arbequina Olive are well adapted to this warm, dry climate. For privacy, Leyland Cypress can work but needs monitoring for heat stress. The consistent warmth also supports tropical-looking palms such as Chinese Windmill and Majesty, though the windmill palm prefers some shade from intense sun.

When you shop trees for zone 10 in Los Angeles, focus on species that can handle the long, dry summers and mild winters. Arbor Buddy's 1-Year Thrive Guarantee gives you a safety net while you establish your new tree.

How cold does it get in Los Angeles in winter?

Which trees grow best in Los Angeles's hardiness zone?

Species that tolerate dry summers and mild winters perform best. Mexican White Oak, Natchez Crape Myrtle, and Chinese Windmill Palm all thrive in zone 10b. Arbequina Olive also does well, but check local ordinances before planting. Arbor Buddy ships trees to ZIP 90068 and nearby ZIPs like 90064 and 90065.

Does Arbor Buddy deliver trees to ZIP 90068?

Yes, Arbor Buddy delivers large trees by freight to ZIP 90068 and surrounding Los Angeles ZIPs 90064, 90065, 90066, 90067, 90070, and 90071. Orders ship between fall and early spring when the transplant window is best for zone 10. You must be home to receive and inspect the tree upon arrival.

What are good privacy or screening trees for Los Angeles?

Leyland Cypress is a common choice for fast privacy in zone 10, but it can suffer in hot, dry summers.

How Los Angeles Compares to Other Areas

Los Angeles zone 10b is one of the warmest in the U.S., but other regions face different challenges.

ZIP 17099 in Yeagertown, Pennsylvania (PA) sits in zone 7a with typical winter lows of 0 to 5 F. Heat and humidity tolerance becomes critical there, while in Los Angeles the bigger issue is summer drought. Here, the zone usually pushes the choice toward heat- and drought-tolerant trees like Mexican White Oak and Chinese Windmill Palm, which would need protection in Pennsylvania's severe winters.

ZIP 37764 in Kodak, Tennessee (TN) is zone 7b with lows of 5 to 10 F. The practical difference is drought tolerance. Los Angeles gets far less summer rain than Tennessee, so trees like Arbequina Olive that handle dry conditions are a natural fit here, whereas Kodak buyers often choose moisture-loving species.

ZIP 75103 in Canton, Texas (TX) is zone 8b with lows of 15 to 20 F. Here the contrast is cold-hardiness. Los Angeles's zone 10b rarely sees freezing temperatures, while Canton must contend with occasional hard frosts. Locally, that points buyers toward subtropical palms and tropicals that would fail in Texas winters, such as Majesty Palm and Natchez Crape Myrtle.

For Los Angeles buyers, these comparisons confirm that your warm, dry climate lets you pick from a broader palette of heat-loving, low-chill trees.

Buying trees in Los Angeles 90068: 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 90068 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.
