Those who live in Florida should do more than enjoy the tropical beauty; they should also embrace the climate where they live by growing citrus fruit trees to enjoy homegrown fresh fruit, juice, dried fruit, and even preserves. To buy fruit trees in the Fort Myers area, come check out the company-grown trees we offer. Beltran’s Nursery and Landscape has offered carefully, expertly grown trees for the landscapes of Southwest Florida for well over 30 years.

As great as it would be to enjoy fresh fruit on a regular basis, planting fruit trees also provides aesthetic benefits for landscaping efforts. The bright, full greenery of the leaves, and the symmetrical canopy make for a remarkable feature. They work as a single planting or as part of a grouping in a larger yard or as screening for property borders. If you buy a larger tree, Beltran’s Nursery and Landscape even offers installation assistance with expert staff and capable machinery.

Being able to enjoy freshly grown fruit is beneficial to the health of your family. While the fruit itself will be healthy and delicious, having a real idea of how food is grown will inspire your family to steer clear of more processed foods in favor of healthier, fresh options.
