Frequently Asked Questions
When do trees ship to Clearwater?
Deliveries into zone 10 land in the cooler half of the year, fall to early spring. That gives your trees a chance to settle in before summer heat. Trees ship by freight directly to your property in ZIP 33761.
Which trees grow best in Clearwater's hardiness zone?
Zone 10a trees like Live Oak, Natchez Crape Myrtle, Cold Hardy Avocado, Christmas Palm, and Sago Palm all perform well. Leyland Cypress can work but needs good airflow to avoid canker. The mild winters allow tropicals and many fruit trees to thrive.
What size do the trees arrive at?
Trees are nursery-grown at a usable landscape size, typically 4 to 6 feet tall depending on the species. They arrive in a container ready for planting. You get a substantial tree that can establish quickly.
What is the 1-Year Thrive Guarantee?

How Clearwater Compares to Other Areas
ZIP 02831 in Hope, Rhode Island (RI) sits in zone 6b with winter lows -5 to 0 F. That climate kills most tropicals and many palms. Japanese maples perform well there but struggle in Clearwater's heat. The practical difference is that your Clearwater yard can grow avocado and crape myrtle, while Hope yards focus on cold-hardy maples and oaks.
ZIP 84016 in Clearfield, Utah (UT) is zone 7a, lows 0 to 5 F. Dry air and cold winters mean drought-tolerant trees like junipers and pines do well. Here, the zone usually pushes the choice toward trees that need less water. In Clearwater, humidity drives the selection toward moisture-tolerant species like Live Oak and Crape Myrtle. Your yard rarely faces drought stress.
ZIP 18949 in Plumsteadville, Pennsylvania (PA) is also zone 7a, lows 0 to 5 F. Heat and humidity are less extreme than in Florida. Trees that need cold winter chill, like many fruit trees, perform better there. Locally, that points buyers toward heat-tolerant varieties. Avocado and citrus are risky in Pennsylvania but thrive in Clearwater.
What does this mean for your cart? In Clearwater ZIP 33761, choose trees that handle humidity, mild winters, and occasional cold snaps. Tropicals and subtropicals are your advantage.
