Rooted in
Tampa Soil
Every tree we sell is grown for this climate — not shipped across the country and hoping it survives. We know what thrives here, and we know how to help it thrive.
Our Inventory
From shade giants to foundation shrubs, every plant in our nursery is selected for Florida's unique growing conditions. We rotate stock seasonally — stop by to see what's currently available.

Not a Big-Box Store.
A Real Nursery.
McP's Trees started as a family operation with a simple conviction: Tampa gardeners deserve plants that are actually grown for Tampa. Not shipped from three states away, not selected for curb appeal at a chain store, but rooted in soil that knows this climate.
For over four decades, we've helped homeowners, landscapers, and commercial properties find the right specimen for the right place. We don't push the biggest order — we push the right order. That's why people drive from Pasco to Pinellas to shop with us.
Walk our rows. Ask us questions. We'll tell you what works, what doesn't, and what's worth the wait.
More Than a Retail Counter
Buying a tree is the easy part. Making sure it survives — and thrives — is where we earn our keep.
Plant Selection Guidance
Tell us what you're working with — sun, soil, space, purpose — and we'll point you to what actually fits. No upsells, just honest recommendations.
Planting & Care Instructions
Every tree comes with our planting notes — hole size, soil prep, watering schedule, and what to expect through the first year. We don't sell and disappear.
Delivery & Loading Help
Large trees? We'll help you load them safely. For bigger orders, we coordinate delivery to your property within the Tampa area.
Landscaper & Trade Pricing
Volume buyers and licensed landscapers — ask about our trade program. Consistent supply, competitive pricing, and priority pull times.
Come Walk the Rows
