Professional tree installation, up to 48″ box trees
Enhance your property with professionally installed shade trees, ornamental trees, and mature landscape trees. Valley Oak Landscape Co. specializes in tree installation throughout Bakersfield, handling everything from smaller landscape trees to large 48-inch box trees. Our installation process includes proper excavation, tree placement, backfilling, and staking when needed to promote healthy establishment and long-term growth.
Plants & trees selected for Bakersfield’s climate
A beautiful landscape begins with choosing plants and trees suited to the local environment. We install a variety of shade trees, ornamental trees, shrubs, and drought-tolerant plants selected for Bakersfield's hot summers and varying soil conditions. From Chinese pistache and crape myrtle trees to decorative shrubs and landscape planting beds, we create attractive, cohesive landscapes that complement your home.
Proper tree placement & long-term root protection
Successful tree installation requires thoughtful planning beyond planting. Our team considers mature tree size, root development, nearby structures, and irrigation requirements to determine appropriate placement. We also install root barriers, tree staking systems, drip irrigation, and dedicated tree bubblers when needed to support healthy growth while helping protect surrounding concrete, walkways, and landscape features.

What trees grow well in Bakersfield?
Chinese pistache, crape myrtle and desert willow are reliable choices. On large lots, a native valley oak is a long-term shade tree.
When is the best time to plant trees?
Fall is ideal because roots grow through the mild winter. Spring planting works too with regular watering.
Can you plant large boxed trees?
Yes. We plant any size tree, including large boxed trees delivered by truck.
