Hello looking for recommendations for nurseries which sell wholesale. Preferably in California but open to other recommendations as well. Thanks in advance

Clarify by what you mean by wholesale? Do you mean you will buy 5 trees or 20 trees or do you want the wholesale price for buying two mango trees, one banana tree, 3 guava trees, a canistel, and two apple trees?

Really depends on pricing and species available. Probably an order of around 30-100 trees total mixed species, for now and more in future.

I doubt there is any true tropical trees wholesalers in California or elsewhere beside Florida. And even Florida, if the "wholesaler" is not around Miami, be careful. Southern tip of Florida has tropical climate even though technically it's not in a tropical zone.

Yes like kh0110 says, most nurseries out west get trucks from FL

Brokaw is one that comes to mind but useless to you unless your starting an Avocado farm somehow.
W&N another , if you want to start a Citrus Farm.
What plants is this about in order of priority?
