The Avocado Nursery 
Do you have any long-thorned bushes? If so, what are their prices?
You can email me at katheryn@inspirationsbykatheryn.com (my old yahoo email crashed).
What variety of long-thorned bushes are you looking for? Are the Bougainvillea, Hackberry, or Pomegranate?
I have bougainvillea, but those thorns are only about an inch long. Do you have any varieties that are two inches long?
Not sure what kind of plant that is. Can you describe the leaf and if any flowers? Just two inches thorned is not enough to see what plant you are looking for. Or do have a picture of plant you are looking for?

Citrus is available between October thru March. Includes blood orange trees. 5gal $45 and 15gal $95

Do you ever do any programs off-site? I am the manager at McFarland State Historic Park in Florence, and I am planning programs for 2018. Someone told me they heard you give a very interesting talk on native plants. If you do go off-site, would you please tell me what programs you provide, the cost, and any details? Thanks so much!
Hi Susan, my name is Adel, Phil’s assistant and one of the sales gals at the nursery. I will check with Phil about talks and any other details you may need. He does many of his talks here at the nursery grounds.
What is the name of a cactus that stays small, is large on the bottom half, and narrow and pointed on the top half like a chimney?
There many columnar cactus as you describe. Small as 3ft or little taller? Here a few 3ft and up: Golden Torch 4-5ft, mexican fence post 5-15 ft, senita 8-15 ft.
My palm trees may be developing a fungus. It is around the trunk about two feet off the ground and looks kind of like corn.
We’re looking for a heat and full sun loving, relatively fast growing trellising desert vine to replace some very old, dying Jasmine vines on the east side of our Northeast patio. I have read about the Mexican flame Vine but don’t know whether it is invasive in this growing zone. Can you recommend something and do you have anyting at Avocado Nursery that might work for us? We want to plant in probably October this year. Thank you.

Do you have dwarf citrus trees?
Best time is mid-September for citrus due to heat.
I have full sun and was thinking of planting a pistachio tree but looks like you don’t carry them. Can you recommend something that’s not real messy? Just removed Palo Verda cuz it kept falling over. Absolutely do not want mestique.
A pistachio is deciduous meaning that it drops all its’ leaves every winter….from December to February.

The smallest we have is 5 gallon size at $25 each.
I have a question. How and when do I cut back my lantanas?
Thank you
Trim your Lantanas between Mid-January to end of February. How? If lantana width is currently 3ft wide you can trim off 1-2 foot of growth.
Do you remove dead palm trees and replant new ones ? Thank’s
It would depend on size and variety of Palm trees. Labor is $45 per hour per person.
Otherwise we can recommend other landscapers that we deal with.
For the first time I had an opportunity to visit & Phil kindly gave me a tour!
What a fantastic fun nursery with many options to choose from & all reasonably priced!
Thank you Phil – see you again teal soon!
