Palo Verde Nursery
Your High Desert Source for Plants, Materials & Outdoor Inspiration
Palo Verde Nursery is the retail nursery and garden center of Contemporary Landscape & Maintenance Inc., proudly serving Apple Valley, California and the surrounding High Desert since 2007. Built specifically for the Mojave Desert climate, our nursery offers a carefully curated selection of plants, trees, soils, and outdoor materials that thrive in our unique soil, sun, and wind conditions.
Unlike big-box garden centers that stock generic plants, Palo Verde Nursery focuses on varieties proven to perform in High Desert environments.

Whether you’re creating a new garden, refreshing your yard, or planning a full landscape project, our nursery gives you access to both the plants and the expertise needed to get it right the first time.

Landscape Materials & Garden Supplies
A healthy landscape starts with the right foundation. Palo Verde Nursery provides the soils and planting materials needed to ensure long-term plant health and proper drainage in High Desert soil.
Our nursery carries:
- Planting soil
- Organic soil
- Soil amendments
- Mulch
- Decorative rock
- Planter materials
- Raised bed materials
- Garden art and accents
Because Apple Valley soil is often sandy, compacted, or alkaline, using the correct soil blend is critical for root development, moisture retention, and plant longevity. Our team helps match the right materials to each plant type and application.
Artificial Grass & Water-Smart Landscape Options
Water conservation is a major concern in the High Desert, and Palo Verde Nursery offers solutions that allow homeowners to enjoy beautiful outdoor spaces without excessive water use.
We provide:
- Artificial grass
- Artificial turf materials
- Water-wise landscape solutions
- Low-water plant options
Artificial turf is an ideal solution for Apple Valley yards, playgrounds, pet areas, and commercial properties where natural grass struggles due to heat, wind, or irrigation restrictions. When combined with native and drought-tolerant plants, it allows for attractive landscapes with dramatically reduced maintenance and water costs.
Garden Art & Decorative Features
In addition to plants and soil, Palo Verde Nursery carries items that bring personality and visual interest to outdoor spaces.
You’ll find:
- Garden art
- Decorative accents
- Planters
- Outdoor décor
- Landscape features
These elements help tie together plantings, walkways, patios, and outdoor living areas, creating a more polished and cohesive landscape.
Nursery + Professional Installation = One Seamless Experience
Because Palo Verde Nursery is part of Contemporary Landscape & Maintenance Inc., customers have the unique advantage of both retail access and professional landscape services under one roof. You can purchase plants, materials, and turf directly from the nursery—or have our experienced landscape team design and install everything for you.
This makes it easy to move from concept to completion without guesswork or mismatched materials. Everything we sell is what we install, ensuring compatibility, quality, and long-term performance.
Why Palo Verde Nursery Is Different
Big chain nurseries may offer volume, but Palo Verde Nursery offers expertise built on real High Desert experience. Our inventory reflects what works in Apple Valley, Victorville, Hesperia, and the surrounding counties—not what looks good on a warehouse shelf.
We understand:
- High wind exposure
- Intense summer heat
- Cold winter nights
- Alkaline and sandy soils
- Local water restrictions
- Long-term plant survival in desert conditions
That’s why our plant stock, soil blends, and turf options are chosen with performance and sustainability in mind.
