What we grow
Shade and ornamental trees for the Pacific Northwest
We grow a large selection of shade, ornamental and conifer trees. Most of our trees are grown in container with a bark mix for soil. This makes them lighter than traditional B&B trees and easier to move throughout the year.

Why landscapers choose Garden Gate trees
Garden Gate Nursery focuses on wholesale container trees that fit real Pacific Northwest projects — municipal streetscapes, commercial sites, retail lots, and residential landscapes.
Growing in containers with a bark-based mix keeps trees lighter and more flexible to schedule than traditional balled-and-burlapped stock. That helps landscape crews plant in tighter spaces, extend the planting season, and reduce transplant shock when trees are handled correctly.

Conifer trees — Willamette Valley, Oregon
Since 2013 we have grown most of our conifers at a nursery location in Oregon’s Willamette Valley, where the climate favors evergreen production for privacy screens, entries, and year-round structure.
