What types of trees does Santa Fe Tree Company specialize in?

We specialize in container-grown evergreens, woody ornamentals, and shrubs. Our top products include Thuja Green Giant, Leyland Cypress, Southern Magnolia, Eastern Red Cedar, and Wax Myrtle. We grow trees in 15-gallon and 30-gallon containers, primarily serving wholesale customers throughout the eastern United States.

Do you sell to homeowners or only to wholesale customers?

Santa Fe Tree Company primarily serves wholesale customers including landscape contractors, nurseries, and landscaping professionals. We focus on bulk orders and contract sales to serve the trade industry throughout Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Alabama, and Texas.

What container sizes do you offer?

We produce container trees in two primary sizes: 15-gallon containers (typically 5-8 feet tall depending on species) and 30-gallon containers (typically 7-12 feet tall depending on species). Container sizes provide instant impact and better transplant success compared to field-grown trees.

What areas does Santa Fe Tree Company serve?

We serve the eastern United States market, with primary focus on Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Alabama, and Texas. We arrange freight delivery for wholesale orders and work with landscape contractors throughout the Southeast and expanding into markets like Dallas-Fort Worth.

Are your trees native to Florida?

Yes, we are members of the Florida Association of Native Nurseries (FANN) and specialize in native Florida trees including Southern Magnolia (multiple cultivars), Eastern Red Cedar, Wax Myrtle, and various native holly species. We also grow popular non-native evergreens like Thuja Green Giant and Leyland Cypress that perform well in the Southeast.

What is the difference between #15 and #30 container trees?

#15 containers (15 gallons) are more cost-effective for large-scale projects and typically deliver trees 5-8 feet tall. #30 containers (30 gallons) provide larger, more established trees at 7-12 feet tall with more immediate impact. Both sizes establish well and grow quickly. Many customers prefer #30 for premium projects where instant screening is needed.

Do you ship trees or offer delivery?

Yes, we arrange freight delivery for wholesale orders throughout our service area. We can coordinate full truckloads or split loads to optimize shipping costs. Our team works with you to schedule delivery that aligns with your project timeline. Contact us to discuss shipping options for your specific location and order size.

What is the best time to plant container trees in Florida?

Container trees can be planted year-round in Florida, but fall through early spring (October through March) is ideal for establishment before summer heat. Container-grown trees have the advantage of an intact root system, making them more adaptable to planting outside the traditional bare-root season. Proper irrigation is essential, especially for summer plantings.

How fast do Thuja Green Giant and Leyland Cypress grow?

Thuja Green Giant grows 3-5 feet per year once established, reaching mature heights of 30-40 feet. Leyland Cypress grows 3-4 feet per year, reaching 35-50 feet at maturity. Both are excellent fast-growing evergreens for privacy screens and windbreaks. Growth rates depend on soil conditions, irrigation, and climate zone.

Are you expanding to new locations?

Yes, Santa Fe Tree Company is actively expanding production capacity. We are developing Olustee Creek Farms as a new growing site, with infrastructure development in early 2025 and production scaling through summer 2025. This expansion will increase our container tree availability and allow us to better serve growing markets throughout the Southeast.

What makes Santa Fe Tree Company different from other wholesale nurseries?

We are a family-owned business (founded 2013 by the Milliken brothers) specializing in container-grown trees with a focus on both popular evergreens and native Florida species. As FANN members, we emphasize native tree production. We use modern growing techniques including drone technology for quality control, and we focus on contract sales relationships with landscape professionals rather than retail sales.
