Liz... fairfax near washington... huge nursery lot, wholesale I think. Go there, it's big.

Otherwise that one in the west valley, like calabasas, right off the 101... I forget the name, but that one is higher end, more eclectic.

I always see different kinds of trees on Craigslist. They are usually free if you go get em. So if you got some friends with a truck and some shovels then you should be good. You should make a fountain. It's not hard. Just get all the elements you want and pout em together. All you need, depending on what kind of fountain you want, is a basin a pump and something for the water to flow down.

Sunshine Nursery in Ontario. HUGE selection of everything and great prices!!
Seriously you could spend hours just walking around.

"Loading:You are welcome to use your vehicle to drive around and load the plants you

Just to give you an idea how big this place is.
If you catch them at the right time when they first bring all their homegrown plants out they are the fullest, healthiest plants I've seen anywhere but as the weeks goes by still good plants but the best go quick.

Bruce is a Horticulturist. I'll ask him to email you tonight with some suggestions. We also have a few contacts down south to some wholesale nurseries too.

Thanks Shannon. I'll look for it!
Sperling has trees? I'll call them. Been awhile since I was there.
I want the first fountain.
I'll settle for the second. Or a more attractive variation of it.
Anyway, we will be putting in plants at some time but for now, I want a tree for my park way.

Not much variety but if you're like me and kill most everything you plant Home Depot is great. They take back dead plants/trees for a refund/exchange. The price is nice as well.
