Great Bay Area nurseries with 15 gallon + Japanese maple trees

9 years ago

Hi,

I'm looking to buy a wide variety of plants, like hydrangea, chocolate vines, bamboos (robusta), Japanese maples (coral bark, full moon, and maybe crimson queen), a variety of clematis, kerria, climbing roses, etc. Particularly challenging is japanese maples, because I'm looking for 15 gallon size ones that won't break the bank.

Ideally I could go to one nursery and get it all done, but I'm not buying via a contractor, so cannot go to Pacific Nurseries, etc.

I have found Urban Tree Nursery - but they may not have everything I need in stock. Neither does Berkeley Horticulture have everything.

Are there other nurseries that you can recommend? What is the price? I think Urban Tree is very reasonable, Berkeley Horticulture is on the higher side. Thank you very much!!

If you're up for a road trip, there's a nursery along the central coast that is having an amazing close out sale right now. See: [Sommer Wholesale Nursery.](http://www.sommerwholesalenursery.com/) They still have a great selection of 15 gallon maples, plus many unusual trees. Sale ends on the 10th.
